The castle in Tharandt was built between 1858 and 1861 instead of a country house and acquired in 1866 by the Polish count and chamberlain Michael Jérôme Leszczyc-Sumiński. He had remodeling work done and in 1898 bequeathed the castle to his stepson Baron von Recum. In 1936 redesign work took place again after the castle was destroyed by fire. The archway has design elements from Indian-Islamic architecture. The castle is located below the castle ruins.

After 1945, the Forestry School, later the Forestry Academy, was located in the castle.

Unfortunately, one can only guess what a proud house it might have been. It's a shame that everything is decaying! Nevertheless, a detour is worthwhile, because if you have a bit of imagination, you can dream of better times despite the poor state of the building. .
