Langburkersdorf Castle, located at the western entrance to the town, has a history of many changes of ownership. In 1423 the manor was first named as the property of Leuthold von Luttitz, governor of Hohnstein. Georg von Wehse acquired the house in Burkersdorf in 1564. The foundation stone for the new house was laid in 1611, after which it remained in the von Wehse family ownership for a long time. Baron von Stieglitz bought the castle in 1870 and used it as a hunting residence. 1906 visited King of Saxony Friedrich August III. "Burkersdorf Castle" with its huge entourage.
