small but beautiful castle.

The castle park is surrounded by a high wall and is off-limits. It's a bit disappointing that you can only see the castle from one side.

First mentioned as a castle at the end of the 12th century, Penkun Castle is today one of the last remaining castles of the Pomeranian Dukes. The castle association runs a border and customs museum in the former administrator's house, and there is a small exhibition on the judicial system in Pomerania in the castle cellar.

Wartin Castle was built in 1695 under Captain Christoph von der Osten as the manor house of the Wartin manor. It was rebuilt and renovated after 1991 by the "European Academy" association. Today it is used by this association and is a meeting place for artists and scientists from all over the world. Opposite the castle there is a riding stable.

Wartin Palace was built in 1695 under Captain Christoph von der Osten as a manor house for the Wartin manor. The baroque estate complex consists of a castle and surrounding manor buildings, including: former palace warehouse and schnapps distillery, currently housing a cultural barn. There was also a forge, stables and numerous barns. Currently, most of the buildings have been renovated and are used as accommodation facilities and for organizing events such as weddings, family celebrations and corporate events. An associated park and garden complete the complex and are surrounded by a wall of natural stone and brick up to five meters high. This makes the castle park one of the few preserved buildings in northern Brandenburg with a completely brick wall. In terms of cultural history, it is the equivalent of the leading landscape parks of Lenné. An old arched door leads from the park to a beautiful church from the 13th century. The palace is accessible from the outside.

The history of the city dates back to 1127, when the Slavs built a defensive stronghold in the Randow River valley. The first mention of a defensive structure in Löcknitz dates back to 1212, and in 1242 a bridge was built in place of the ford. For years, the border between Pomerania and Brandenburg running through here justifies the fortified character of the town. Once Löcknitz belonged to the Pomeranian princes, once to the Branderburgians. In the book Medieval Castles of Western Pomerania, Zbigniew Radacki wrote that the stronghold belonged to the bishops of Kamień. In 1280, a document on the division of the Kołobrzeg land was signed in the "castrum Lokenitz". In 1390, Bishop Filip von Rehberg renounced the castle to the princes of Szczecin, who gave it to the Wusses, knights from Lębork, "hus civitas i terra Lockenitze" for 3,000 marks towards the debt. Around 1400, the stronghold received a brick form, and in 1479 it came into the possession of the Schulenburg family. Then the place was rebuilt many times, in the mid-16th century it was converted into a Renaissance-style manor house. It lost its strategic importance in 1720 after the annexation of Brandenburg and Pomerania to Prussia.

Picturesquely situated on the castle hill, the residence in Penkun dominates the city. In addition to the castle dating from the 16th and 17th centuries, the entire complex of buildings includes relics of a medieval stronghold, a gatehouse from 1486, a gate from 1614, the manager's house from the 18th century and a farm building built in the 19th century.

Here is also the tourist information. The castle is beautifully situated on the lowlands of the Randow
