Burg Oschersleben stands in Oschersleben (Bode) (Landkreis Börde), in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. No visits are on record for this building.
On the banks of the Bode river in Oschersleben stand the remains of a medieval stronghold first recorded in 1205, long held by the bishops of Halberstadt. Little survives of the original complex beyond a stair turret, two portals, and traces of the old defensive walls, along with the building born of the Renaissance residence commissioned by Cardinal Albrecht in the sixteenth century, later converted into a granary. The site, neglected for decades, is now owned by a company linked to the town and undergoing restoration.
