リーベンヴァルデの洞窟・トップ7

The romantic park element was built around 1900 in the form of an artificial ruin. In addition to a concrete cap ceiling, the building consists of both field stones and historical sandstone elements. Some of these come from demolished parts of old buildings such as the Berlin Art Academy and Nuremberg's Sebalduskirche. The park-side entrance stone of the Rosenburg bears the inscription, based on the so-called bridal gate of the Sebalduskirche: "The bridal gate greets you solemnly". The castle served as a playhouse for the children of the estate. The dainty building had doors and windows that could be locked and furnished in a way that was suitable for children. Unfortunately nothing of the interior has survived. The Spielburg probably owes its name to the once lush rose plantations on the park-side, terraced slope. Perhaps also their builder, Prince Philipp von Eulenburg, the author of the “Rose Songs” and his enthusiasm for roses. More information at: https://www.dkb-stiftung.de/die-rosenburg/

Looks nice again now. After an eventful history, the castle, built in the style of the French Renaissance, is now a residential building with twelve apartments, event and office space.

During the Thirty Years' War, the village and the castle were destroyed by Danish troops. Only the stone tower of the church remained. This makes it the oldest building in town. In place of the destroyed castle, Prussia's Elector Friedrich Wilhelm had a hunting lodge built. Today's castle was built by Prussian King Friedrich Wilhelm I. Today it houses part of the exhibition "Hunting and Power", which is important in terms of hunting history and politics.

There is an entrance fee if you want to visit the castle.

The old swan pond is probably past its prime.

Today the castle and the park is a popular place for conferences, wedding celebrations and you can also book beautiful rooms for a short break here. The restaurant is only open to house guests, but you can strengthen yourself and take a short break in the charming courtyard café.

Cake is delicious, ice cream tastes good, just like the coffee.

Fontane liked to stay at Schloss & Gut Liebenberg and even dedicated a chapter to Liebenberg in his work "Wandering through the Mark Brandenburg - Five Castles".
