The ecological monument made of braided willow branches on the Schlossberghof was built in 2006.

The Weidenburg, created by the Swiss architect Marcel Kalberer, is unique in Europe due to its size of 7878 m˛ and its design. In addition to the project manager, four willow construction specialists and around 30 schoolchildren and students from the region were involved in the construction. The main building material is Calva - a broken willow and at the same time the most common pollard willow species. Coconut yarn and synthetic material were used for fastening.
The living and growing work of art consists of a central inner area with a two-storey dome, a lounge and event area as well as an entrance and tour area.
Weidenburg was financed through a LEADER plus project in the Spreewald economic area.

Technical specifications
Large / event dome: 20 m x 14 m area, 10 m height
Stage dome: 12 m x 8 m base, 12 m high
Entrance dome: 8 m base (circular shape), 8 m height
Length of the property: approx. 36 m (without entrance area)

As a new event location, the Weidenburg offers a wide range of uses
- varied cultural events
- Rest area for hikers and cyclists
- Place for artistic and cultural projects
- Guest room for school lessons and excursion destination
