The brothers Wilhelm von Humboldt and Alexander von Humboldt spent their childhood here and Wilhelm von Humboldt also part of his adult life. Tegel Castle is still privately owned and inhabited today.

But the beautiful park is freely accessible every day until sunset and on Mondays you can visit parts of the castle as part of a guided tour. Further information is available here: museumsportal-berlin.de/de/museen/humboldt-museum-schloss-tegel

The castle was initially built as a manor house in the 16th century and then converted into an electoral hunting lodge under Joachim II. It has been owned by the von Humboldt family since 1766 and from then on it was considered a meeting place for scientists and artists. Tegel's current popularity and notoriety is largely due to the brothers Wilhelm and Alexander von Humboldt. Her parents' house and former residence is the Humboldt Castle.

This is a good tip for Humboldt fans on bikes or on foot. Bicycles have to be connected. Idyllic little courtyard there in front of the castle. Attention: The castle is only open on Mondays!
