        Lots of information about the history and events of the Ziesar bishop's residence can be found at: burg-ziesar.de
        The castle museum is also worth a visit.
        The castle chapel is the church of the Catholic community.

          The buildings of the castle house, among other things, the seat of the Ziesar office, the museum for Brandenburg church and cultural history of the Middle Ages, the specialist library for church and cultural history, the official library and a café. The castle chapel St. Peter and Paul is a church of the Catholic parish and is used for regular church services.

            Ziesar was a pleasant surprise on my tour. Worth seeing!
            Ziesar Castle is one of the few remaining bishop's residences in Brandenburg. The Niederungsburg is located on the southern edge of the small town of Ziesar, on the eastern bank of the Kobser Bach. Ziesar Castle was the residence of the Prince-Bishop of the Bishopric of Brandenburg and Bishop of the Diocese of Brandenburg

              The castle museum is stunning. After all, Ziesar was the center of Brandenburg in the Middle Ages, the seat of an archbishop, and to this day the only surviving building, and as far as the chapel is concerned, unchanged over the centuries. Even the elaborate interior paintings have survived for 700 years. The museum is simply enormous for such a small town, and the information is presented with great professionalism. The permanent exhibition on the Ziesar late impressionist Otto Altenkirch is particularly worth seeing.

Today used as an office, museum and tourist information center.
