Püchau Castle rises on the eastern edge of the town on a mountain spur that towers several meters above the Mulde floodplain. The castle itself stands at the eastern end of the approximately 100 by 60 meter area. The square in front of it is lined with outbuildings, a few trees, and has a historic fountain at its center. The castle is an irregular three-wing complex grouped around an approximately 200 m² courtyard. The north side is enclosed by a one-story, crenellated battlement. In the southeast corner of the courtyard, a stair tower, also crenellated, rises above the three-story buildings. The entrance to the complex, designed as a bridge and flanked by two columns with eagles, leads to an arched gateway in the west wing. This is decorated with balconies and attached turrets on the front side. The outer southeast corner is also tower-like and features a two-story cast-iron balcony. Of the numerous rooms of the castle, the small dining room with its richly carved ceiling, the Marble Hall with its magnificent star-shaped ceiling[1], and the Armory are particularly magnificent. Below the castle hill, the 12.4-hectare English-style castle park with two ponds extends to the north and east. Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schloss_P%C3%BCchau

In 1795/1796, the knight's castle was built in the artificial ruin style as a park setting in the Machern landscape garden by Carl Heinrich August Graf von Lindenau. It dominates the surroundings like a bastion and offers a wonderful view when the weather is clear. The "knight's castle" was intended to be an authentic monument from medieval times due to its appearance. If you like things spooky, you can explore the interior as part of a guided tour of the park.

The park in Machern can be experienced with many romantic details. The castle is the highlight.

The fortified hilltop castle was built to protect Franconian and Saxon settlements from the 12th to the 13th century. There was an outer bailey with a gate and a core castle. The rare double keep and parts of the ring wall are still there. The castle has not been inhabited since 1456. During the Thirty Years' War (1618-48) it was renovated by the lord of the Sahlis manor, Hans Löser I, to provide protection for the residents of Kohren and the surrounding area. The owner is now the town of Frohburg. Source:https://www.tourismusverein-borna-kohrenerland.de/fileadmin/user_upload/flyer-geschichtsverein_2020-05_web.pdf

If you like castles and ruins, you will like this one. From the top there is a magnificent view of the romantic pottery village.

It is worth taking a guided tour of the tower as that is where the local order met.

What a beautiful castle 🏰, gorgeous. It kind of reminds me of Schloss 🏰 Ponitz. The tavern opposite is worth its weight in gold for hikers.
