    Little is left of its former glory. Events still take place here

      You walk past it. It's a shame it's so inconspicuous.

        Dryburg Castle was owned by the Lords of Salza until 1345. After its destruction in 1346, the sovereign officials had the castle rebuilt as the administrative seat. The west wing visible today combines a late Romanesque residential tower (before 1346) and two castle houses (mid-14th century), which were connected to each other around 1530 by the installation of a staircase. Between 1694 and 1720, the castle was redesigned as the widow's residence of the Duchy of Saxony-Weißenfels and the southern wing that was preserved was built in half-timbered construction. The Dowager Duchess Friederike von Sachsen-Weißenfels (1715-1775) lived in the castle from 1746 and had a summer residence built outside the city gates from 1749, today's Friederikenschlösschen. In 1899, Dryburg Castle burned down to a large extent and the city of Langensalza bought the remaining buildings from the castle in 1927 and set up four municipal apartments there, among other things.

        TIP


        The Dryburg is an absolute must for art lovers. This is where the Kunstwestthüringer e.V. gallery is at home. From Thursday to Saturday from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., the exhibitions by nationally and internationally known artists attract numerous visitors.
