The moated castle was built in the 10th century as a Saxon border fortress against the Wends, presumably on the site of a Slavic hillfort in the Milde marshland. A nunnery founded under its protection, which the Obotrites destroyed in 983, existed here until 1121. The castle belonged to the four Altmark burgwarden (fortified districts), which administered the sovereign's judicial and military districts, along with Tangermünde Castle, Osterburg Castle, and Arneburg Castle. These protected the Frankish-colonized territory and the missionary monasteries between the Elbe and Milde rivers. Source: Wikipedia

invites you to rest

Is not always in operation

A good opportunity for a short break. With views of Vienau to the west and Meßdorf to the northeast. In the past, you could even swim here. Today, there isn't really a swimming area, but you can still jump into the water right next to the dam.

Many beautiful old half-timbered houses.

Unfortunately not accessible.

Kalbe Castle is a historic moated castle first documented in 1196, but its origins likely date back to the 9th or 10th century. In 1324, it came into the possession of the von Alvensleben family, who expanded the complex into the largest castle in the Altmark region. After a devastating fire in 1584, the castle was rebuilt one last time. During the Thirty Years' War, the castle was demolished in August 1632 by the residents of Kalbe and the surrounding villages on the orders of the Elector of Brandenburg. Today, only ruins remain of the once imposing complex, which is considered a prominent landmark of the town. The "Altes Wachhaus" castle and local history museum is located on the former castle grounds. It is housed in the town's oldest surviving building, dating from 1584, and offers insight into regional history.
