Schliestedt Palace is a palace in Schliestedt, in the district of Wolfenbüttel, Lower Saxony. It was built between 1748 and 1760 in the Rococo style on the site of a castle belonging to the von Schliestedt family. The palace is considered the most significant example of Rococo architecture in the Brunswick region. The palace's predecessor was a castle whose construction date is unknown. It was the seat of the von Schliestedt family, whose line died out in 1613. A copper engraving by Merian from 1654 shows the complex, consisting of a main building with a half-timbered upper story and an annex with a stone gatehouse. According to his description, the castle was already very old at that time, had a square shape, and was surrounded by a moat. As early as 1449, the Lords of Schliestedt (landowners from approximately 1147 to 1562) relinquished the castle to the Duke of Brunswick. The castle was owned by four noble families until 1527, after which it was granted as a fief to a chancellor of the Duke of Brunswick. The castle came into the possession of the von der Streithorst family as a ducal fief in 1562. They were followed by the von Badendorff family (1663–1733), Lowisen (Luise) von der Planitz, widow of von Badendorff (1734–1741), and in 1747, Heinrich Bernhard Schrader von Schliestedt, with the permission of Duke Karl I, purchased the castle complex. He demolished it and, not far from the castle site, built the two-story Rococo palace that stands today, according to plans by Martin Peltier de Belfort. The owners subsequently included the von Bülow family (1777–1846), the von Schwicheldt family, and the von Adelebsen family (1846–1929). After various changes of ownership and different uses, Schliestedt Palace has been a retirement home since 1950.

I didn't know it until yesterday. Very beautiful castle with a bridge to the main entrance over the former moat. I found the gravestone of the house dog "Dame" from 1808 impressive.

The stamp also belongs to the Huy-Fallstein booklet of the HWN.

Two surrounding moats with a wall in between have been preserved to this day. The inner moat encloses the oldest castle, an oval complex with a diameter of around 70 m, in whose wall ring in the southwest the 33 m high keep is integrated. This has a circular floor plan and its entrance is 12 m high. To the west there is a 34 m long fort-like extension with a small inner courtyard. Renovations in the fort area were mainly carried out in the Renaissance, which can be seen particularly in the windows and portals. A wooden pulpit altar in the castle chapel from the end of the 17th century has also been preserved. The furnishings, dated “1681” but unsigned, are attributed to Martin Kraft. Also worth seeing are the count's office, the Princess Marie Pauline restaurant, the knight's cellar, the prince's hall and mirror hall, the baroque castle chapel and the keep. Source: Wikipedia

In the 16th century, the Dukes of Braunschweig had Paul Francke expand the castle complex into a magnificent four-wing palace complex in the Renaissance style. Until 1659, the castle served as a summer residence for the Wolfenbüttel princes and as a widow's residence for three duchesses for a good 100 years. Duke Julius, who lived at Hesse Castle for several years as crown prince, and his son Heinrich Julius, who was born here in 1564, ensured that the castle was furnished in a royally representative manner. Under Duke Heinrich Julius, at the same time Bishop of Halberstadt and Rector of the University of Helmstedt, Hesse Castle developed into a cultural center of the region. This duke, who also introduced the Reformation at Halberstadt Cathedral in 1591, was considered the most learned prince of his time. The Renaissance garden created by the botanist and princely gardener Johann Royer from 1607 to 1655 with the generous support of the Duchesses Elisabeth and Anna Sophie achieved fame. This is how one of the most important pleasure gardens was created in a Mannerist style, the appearance of which has been handed down to us in an engraving by Merian. Together with the adjacent botanical garden, the plant collection of over 1,700 species and varieties dwarfed even royal complexes such as those in Copenhagen and Oxford. Source: display board
