    It was built in 1893, and after extensive refurbishment, it has since operated as a hotel.

      Breitenfeld Castle is located in the district of the same name in northern Leipzig, which became part of Lindenthal in 1923 and has been part of Leipzig since Lindenthal's incorporation in 1999. Breitenfeld Castle, originally a medieval moated castle, was rebuilt in the 19th century in the Historicist/Neo-Baroque style and has now been renovated and used as a hotel. Breitenfeld is steeped in history: The famous battles of the Thirty Years' War, considered turning points in European history, took place here in 1631 and 1642. The castle itself served as the headquarters of the Swedish Crown Prince during the Battle of the Nations in 1813. The well-kept park invites you to linger.

      This stop was created as part of the "Discover Green Corners - Leipzig's Northwest" tour by the Alliance 90/The Greens parliamentary group.
