Unfortunately, the entire castle park is left to decay because there is probably no investor. Fence it and forget it. A construction company has rented a part of the castle park and stores its materials there.
It's sad what's going on in the 'east' of the Federal Republic...

The palace gardens, whose current structure dates back to the 1920s, contain a mausoleum. This was built in 1854 for the then owner, Baron von Pentz. The palace gardens also feature a water tower dating from 1884, an open-air theater, and several lion sculptures.
