Skaby Castle has a turbulent history: monks cut peat there until 1915, farmers planted until 1939, around 1943 the castle was used for the "Lebensborn" campaign, around 1947 it was a place of rest for mentally ill Russian officers and until 1989 it was used by the Army sports club (ASV) as accommodation, the Stasi as a resort and the leadership of the former GDR as a place for private parties. During the GDR era, a 3 meter high concrete wall was built around the entire palace grounds using building elements from the "Berlin Wall". After 1990, the castle grounds served several times for various festivals.Source: fotowiesel.de/brandenburg/2014-skaby-swatzkebergeThe castle is currently being sold: muzi-berlin.de/objekte/item-details.php?id=5694

Hello everyone. We did this tour yesterday with the Komoot app. At the level of the Skabi Torfsee, the district forester came towards us and asked us what we were doing here and how we got here. We explained the route from Spreenhagen to him and that we were hiking with the Komoot app. He didn't think that was so great and said that there were already legal proceedings against Komoot because this route goes over private property. We should have seen 3 signs, which unfortunately we didn't, apart from signs such as Danger to life mining lake and former military training area. We were supposed to go past the wall and then right through the open barrier, where one of these signs said no entry to private property. Do any of you know this case? Maybe Frank Meyer, who hikes a lot? Would something happen to me if I made my tour public?

Greetings, Sille.
