a very beautiful memorial

During the archaeological excavations on the castle grounds, finds were recovered that do not contradict a dating to the 13th or 14th century. The structure was made of limestone and half-timbered.

The victims of the Franco-Prussian War are commemorated in the middle of the town of Biesenthal. Anyone coming from the direction of Bernau will rather enjoy the descent and the thrill of speed than thinking about history. The memorial is special because it is not dedicated to the victims of either world war.

Much of the ruin can no longer be seen, but there is an information sign about it. The thick trunk of the old linden tree is quite impressive.

In 1872 the memorial was inaugurated in honor of those who died in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/71.

The view from the tower opens up completely new perspectives on the city of Biesenthal and the wonderful Biesenthal basin. The tower is open from May to October and admission is free.

The Kaiser Friedrich observation tower stands on the Schlossberg at the foot of the remains of the former castle.

A castle was first mentioned in a document on the Schlossberg in 1337. However, it fell into disrepair over the centuries, was already described as very damaged during the Thirty Years' War and was then demolished. In 1878 the community built a wooden lookout tower on the raised area. He was in 1907 in honor of the German Emperor Friedrich III. replaced by a tower made of brick.
