비어스도르프-프로이덴베르크‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪2‬개의 동굴

The estate, along with its imposing castle (built in 1909), is something truly special! While the mighty building, which could also be described as a manor house, still looks rather dilapidated – apparently, there's a lack of funds and the will to undertake a proper renovation – you can enjoy a hearty meal on the courtyard terrace and drink fresh beer from the estate's own brewery! At the rear, there's a perfectly idyllic landscaped park with a pond, but unfortunately, there's no direct access from the estate. You can't even get to the castle; it's cordoned off all around, and the high fence isn't exactly attractive, but rather repulsive. It spoils the otherwise beautiful view!

During the archaeological excavations on the castle grounds, finds were recovered that do not contradict a dating to the 13th or 14th century. The structure was made of limestone and half-timbered.

Before 1900, the manor Börnicke had a size of 1105 ha. The extensive farm buildings, manor house, stables, barns and distillery are estimated to date from the years 1870/80. The manor house itself could perhaps have been built even earlier and has a classical plaster facade. The part used for agriculture is spatially slightly separated from the palace building. It consists of two four-sided courtyards of different sizes - a small courtyard directly on the street and a very large courtyard behind it. Both courtyards are paved with cobblestone. The stable buildings are made of field stones and bricks in the local style. Shortly before the great economic crisis of 1929, the area of the estate was 1032 ha according to the last published agricultural address book and was managed by the administrator F. W. Schmidt. The largest source of income was dairy farming. Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schloss_B%C3%B6rnicke

Much of the ruin can no longer be seen, but there is an information sign about it. The thick trunk of the old linden tree is quite impressive.

The castle is cordoned off over a wide area. Unfortunately, only a limited view is possible. The castle park is open to the public, but unfortunately it is a dead end. In the summer of 2022, the pond was almost completely dry.

Covered rest area with rubbish bin. Very clean and spacious.

Beautiful farm worth seeing. It's just a pity that the castle is rotting away like this.

Right next door are the Börnicke children's farm and the castle park with Börnicke Castle.
