Steinhöfel Palace and Park

Famous personalities from contemporary history were here in the idyllic Steinhöfel Castle, such as the master builder Schinkel and the writer Fontane. The long history of the castle also has some surprises in store, for example it was briefly a consumer department store after the expropriation and GDR land reform.

Steinhöfel Castle is a late Classicist castle in the Steinhöfel municipality in the Oder-Spree district in Brandenburg. With its English-style park, it is one of the most beautiful aristocratic residences in the Mark today as it was in the past. It owes its current shape to the von Massow family, who have expanded it several times since the late 18th century. Extensively restored around the year 2000, the ensemble is now used as a listed hotel.See de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schloss_Steinh%C3%B6fel
