"From the founding of the palace to 1945, the building, courtyard and land belonged to the von Heynitz family. Today's appearance in the transition from the late Gothic to the early Saxon Renaissance is the result of a fundamental renovation and expansion in 1519 under Nicolaus von Heynitz, since 1504 Chancellor and Privy Councilor of Duke George the Bearded.

In 2004 the von Heynitz family (Förderverein Schloss Heynitz e.V.) and the von Watzdorf family bought the castle and the surrounding farm buildings from the community for 150,000 euros. Both parties are half owners of the ensemble, which today houses three apartments and a ballroom. Dr. Eicke von Watzdorf uses part of the building himself, while other parts are rented out as holiday apartments. "- de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schloss_Heynitz

A really nice property in the valley. The building and the surrounding courtyard contain some beautiful details that should appeal to photography enthusiasts.
There are some hiking trails crossing in the place.
