Storkow Castle overlooks the small town of Storkow in Brandenburg, on a site occupied since the mid-12th century during the medieval eastward settlement. First recorded in 1209, it passed from the lords of Strele to the Bieberstein family before Bishop Dietrich von Bülow of Lebus turned it, from 1518, into a three-storey Renaissance residence, one of the earliest of its kind in the region. Damaged by fire twice, in 1775 and again in 1978, it was rebuilt in stages between 2000 and 2009 with regional and European funding, reopening for the town's 800th anniversary celebrations. The castle now houses the visitor centre of the Dahme-Heideseen Nature Park.
