Plön's landmark, visible from afar from all approaches by land and water, was built during the Thirty Years' War between 1633 and 1636. Duke Joachim Ernst of Plön had a brick castle erected on the site of the old, now obsolete, castle. It received its white paint in the 18th century under the Danish King Christian VIII.
