To make a day of it

Schloss Großkmehlen stands in Großkmehlen (Landkreis Oberspreewald-Lausitz), in Brandenburg, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Schloss Großkmehlen is a moated castle in Brandenburg, built in the mid 16th century on the foundations of an earlier medieval structure. Its gabled Renaissance façade, modeled on Schloss Moritzburg, consists of two separate wings that were only connected in the 19th century. Inside, Baroque stucco work from the 17th century survives, likely created by Italian craftsmen, alongside late Gothic elements inherited from the previous building. The surrounding landscape park, laid out in the late 17th century, still shows traces of its original Baroque design, including a surviving pavilion.
