First mentioned in the 13th century, Count Finck von Finckenstein acquired the Alt-Madlitz castle estate in 1751. However, the educator of the Prussian kings Friedrich Wilhelm II and Frederick II did not stay there often. It was his son Friedrich Ludwig Karl who first developed the estate into a true court of the muses. Celebrities such as Ludwig Tieck, Achim von Arnim, Wilhelm von Humboldt and Clemens Brentano regularly visited there. Friedrich Ludwig Karl himself developed the plans for the extensive park that extends directly behind the manor house. Cleverly designed visual axes lined with large oak and chestnut trees characterize the oldest English landscape garden in Brandenburg. Finckenstein loved his park so much that he buried his heart there, surrounded by thirteen field stones symbolizing the number of his children. Unfortunately, when we visited in March 2024, all the ponds and even the large lake were almost completely silted up, but it is still worth a walk.

The castle is privately owned. Visits to the castle itself are only possible by prior arrangement.

The lake actually only came into being as a separate body of water with the construction of the "Alter Dam" in 1869. Conveniently, it was then called Castle Lake. Another part further south, artificially separated by a dam, is the castle pond 😊. Unfortunately, the castle that gave it its name no longer exists.

Worth seeing and interesting. The castle help is accessible

Beautiful little castle on the Oderbruchbahn cycle path and on the B1 in Diedersdorf. More information: https://www.seenland-oderspree.de/Reisefuehrer/Schloesser-Burgen/Schloss-Diedersdorf

Former castle or manor, built in 1748 in baroque style. Now used as a restaurant, event location, etc. According to its own statements, the largest beer garden in Berlin-Brandenburg

Diedersdorf Castle was built in the mid-18th century. Its exterior has been changed and supplemented a few times, the most clearly recognizable is the neo-baroque, richly decorated portal from 1876. On the south side, an open staircase leads to the castle park with a small lake and old trees.

If you have time, you should also visit the park (on foot). Especially in hot summer temperatures you will find nice shady spots here.
