Kreckwitz Castle was first mentioned in 1352 as a manor house

According to legend, the people of Kreckwitz wanted to become Lutheran at the time of the Reformation, but the Bautzen chaplain opposed this and was killed at the foot of the Kreckwitz hills on Christmas Eve. As atonement, the people had to erect the cross (atonement cross). The monument used to stand in the southwest corner of the intersection, right next to the stone signpost.

The mansion Schloss Kreckwitz as the central local property was built after 1750 and redesigned after 1813. Since 1901 the manor with the castle was owned by Ottomar Mittag, who sold it to the Riethmüller family at the end of the 1920s. After the end of the Second World War in 1945, the Riethmüller family was expropriated and the castle was used as a municipal administration and library. In the 1970s, 3 apartments were built on the top floor, which were inhabited until the 1990s. Today the castle is used irregularly for events that take place in the ballroom. The rest of the building remains unused.
