Schloss Laar stands in Zierenberg (Landkreis Kassel), in Hesse, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.
Schloss Laar is an early neoclassical manor house built around 1790 on the grounds of a former manorial farm near Zierenberg, in northern Hesse. The two storey main building, topped with a hipped roof, was later extended by a matching wing in the same architectural style. The estate still includes its wooded park, farm buildings dating partly from the sixteenth century, and a small family cemetery at the edge of the woods. The property remains in the hands of the descendants of the von Starck family, who acquired it in the early twentieth century.
