In addition to a museum, Doberlug Castle also houses the nature park center of the Niederlausitzer Heidelandschaft Nature Park. The interactive exhibition "erlebnisREICH Naturpark" invites you to search for clues in an abstract landscape in the rooms of the former Cistercian abbey. In order to uncover the secrets of change, clues are collected in twelve themed trails. In the outdoor area of the castle, young guests can discover the landscapes and animals of the nature park on a playground. Exhibition opening times: April to September: Tuesday to Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. October to March: Tuesday to Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Further information about the nature park center can be found at https://naturpark-nlh.de/erlebnisreich-naturpark

Beautiful little castle with park.

The expansive palace complex, located in the heart of the town, is divided into a front and rear palace. The three-story tower, with its gateway, connects both palace sections. The rear palace, in particular, with its arcades, is reminiscent of the Renaissance, whose contemporaries the builders, members of the noble family of the Lords of Dieskau, were. Today, the palace serves as the seat of the city administration and cannot be visited from the inside. Unfortunately, climbing the palace tower is currently not possible either. https://www.elbe-elster-land.de/de/kultur-historie/schloesser-und-parks/artikel-schloss-finsterwalde.html

Actually it is just the gatehouse of the front castle with outbuildings. Inside is the Sonnewalde local history museum. Unfortunately, the main castle fell victim to a fire in 1949.

Sallgast Castle was built as a moated castle in the 12th century. During the Thirty Years' War the castle was besieged by Swedish troops but not taken. It was converted into a four-winged castle. The extensive castle park was laid out around 1880 by the politician Robert Fedor von Loebenstein-Lohsa (1854-1939) and expanded in 1911. The castle was restored from 1911 to 1912 according to plans by Bodo Ebhardt. Sallgast Castle and Castle has had many different owners throughout its history. Loebenstein sold the property before 1929. The associated manor then belonged, among other things, to the German mining company mbH based in Berlin, which hired the director Schwartz and administrator E. Klabes on site. This was followed in 1945 by land reform measures and nationalization. In 1989, the village and Sallgast Castle were threatened with demolition because a neighboring lignite mine was to be expanded in the direction of the village. After German reunification in 1990, these plans were not pursued any further.
