    Weissenborn Castle was first mentioned in a document in 1213. It is believed that it was built earlier in the Slavic period. The Hartitzsch family (13 generations) became owners in 1365, until 1802. After numerous changes of ownership, including the Weißenborn paper mill, the castle came into private ownership in 2002, was extensively renovated and is now inhabited by the Count Pehrson Vesterager family.

    Weißenborn Castle of the Weißenborn Manor; Frauensteiner Strasse 8; 16th/17th Century, essentially older; oval, closed, castle-like palace complex with a small inner courtyard, of regional and local historical importance. Plastered three-storey quarry stone building, erected as a small oval complex around the courtyard, in the courtyard stair tower and arcade

    Unfortunately, the castle is privately owned, so access is not possible. The gate was open, but a lock screen alerted me to private property. The site is also so well managed that a lot of greenery does not allow a view of the house, and not much can be seen from the pond below either.
