Schloss Groß Germersleben stands in the Groß Germersleben district of Oschersleben (Bode), in the Landkreis Börde, Saxony-Anhalt. Built on the remains of a medieval residence first recorded in the 13th century, it was rebuilt between 1536 and 1601 by the von Kotze family into a three-wing Renaissance house flanked by four rounded corner towers. Once regarded as one of the oldest and best-preserved manor houses of the Magdeburg Börde, the building was largely gutted by an arson attack in 1999 and now stands as a ruin. Its adjoining park with a pond has been listed among Germany's historic parks and gardens since 1992.
