"Today, the castle represents a focal point of cultural life in the West Vogtland town of Pausa-Mühltroff in the Mühltroff district. It was built as a lowland castle on a greenstone cliff. The castle's architectural gem is the medieval defense and watchtower. Also worth seeing is the "Black Kitchen." This old castle kitchen boasts one of the largest chimneys in the Saxon castle landscape, measuring approximately 21.5 meters. The castle houses a variety of club, event, and exhibition spaces, such as: The crank embroidery and jacquard weaving demonstration workshops The Eschke company exhibition The local history rooms The Vogtland costume association's traditional costume exhibition The art gallery with the MOMENTmal! exhibition The Rudolf Hirschberger Cabinet The "Memories of Mühltroff" exhibition Various events of different genres also take place. Individual tours from the cellar to the roof are also available outside of regular events by appointment." - https://www.schloss-muehltroff.de/

Of the original two Mühltroffer churches, only the castle church still stands today. It is located right next to the castle.

It's a shame that the castle no longer exists. I only know it completely from pictures; it was destroyed in the war.

It was probably built in 1240, when the Lords of Lobdeburg moved from Saalburg to Schleiz. After the family died out in 1289, the castle and town fell to the Landgrave of Thuringia, until the governors of Gera were able to take possession of it around 1318. After the castle was completely destroyed in a major fire in 1475, the Lords of Gera built a new complex. It was extensively expanded by Burgrave Henry the Younger and is therefore referred to in literature as the "Burggravial Castle". This complex also burned down completely in 1689. Henry I of Reuss-Schleiz therefore had an architecturally new castle built, which was finally completed in 1753. After another major fire in 1837, which also destroyed the magnificent tower domes added around 1810, the castle was built on the vaults of the ground floor, which was destroyed by bombs from the U.S. Air Force on April 8, 1945.

The massive Mühltroff Castle was built between the 10th and 11th centuries to defend against the Sorbs. Today there are apartments as well as club and event rooms in the historic building. You can also visit the castle on special event days.

A guided tour is definitely recommended. The Rittergut Knau - a very special building !!!

Together with the current owner - the municipality of Knau - the Förderkreis Rittergut Knau e.V. is trying to secure the historically significant estate and to put it to a new use and make it tangible for everyone.

...... originally painted ship's throat beam ceiling. Its span is 23m and is supported by a truss supported by a single column. In the late 18th century the property was given a modern appearance by merging older parts of the building and erecting the new manor house. At the end of the 19th century the manor was modernized for the last time by the Schneider family. Managed as a model estate until 1945 and used as a teaching and experimental estate after the land reform. From 1952 research center for pig breeding and husbandry of the German Academy of Agricultural Sciences in Berlin. Later, the castle and the outbuildings were driven to wear and tear by using an LPG. Then in 1952 a fire destroyed the inspector's house and the adjoining stables, which opened up the large courtyard complex to the village for the first time.
