Perched atop the mighty rocky massif of Mount Oybin, the ruins of an old castle and monastery stand enthroned. Quiet chants can be heard in the former church, as if the monks were still there.

At the top of the slope stands the baroque palace, built between 1749 and 1755 by Samuel Friedrich von Kanitz (Royal Prussian Chamberlain, husband of Christine Tugendreich von Kyaw). The main portal is supported by Tuscan columns, the keystone shows the double coat of arms of the von Kanitz and von Kyaw families. Two side wings form a forecourt to the main building. Gardens were also built on terraces, appropriately in the baroque style. It was also called the "Sanssouci of Upper Lusatia" due to its unusual building structure. In 1883 it was restored: the outer facade was given sgraffito painting, but the baroque elements disappeared. In 1927 Moritz Joachim Ernst von Kyaw sold the palace to the municipality of Großschönau. From March to August 1933 the palace served as a protective custody camp for the Hainewalde concentration camp and then as a military training camp until 1945. It was used as a residential building until 1977 and then stood empty and dilapidated until 2004. In 2007, the renovation of the east wing began by the support association (founded in 2000). 2013: part of the film Grand Budapest Hotel was shot here.

Oybin with its castle on the hill can be seen from afar and is always a beautiful sight.

The location of the castle alone is fantastic! Get there early, the facility closes at 5 p.m. With a guest card you save 20%

In the past two years, remarkable progress has been made in securing and partially even renovating the palace, also known as "Oberlausitzer Sanssouci". In this way, it was possible to let the north extension with its unique sgraffiti shine in new splendor - considering that this part of the building in particular was considered a symbol of the decay of the castle not too long ago, a symbolic success. The completely new tower lantern signals from afar: Something is moving forward here, time does not stand still here.
