Schloss Noschkowitz, Renaissance castle in Ostrau, Germany
Schloss Noschkowitz is a rectangular castle in Ostrau that combines Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque architectural elements. The building features a tower staircase, multiple roof styles, and multi-story sections that reflect its long architectural development.
The site was first recorded as a noble residence in 1239 and evolved from a water fortress. Multiple noble families, including the Lauterbach line, shaped its development across the centuries.
The place hosted a notable writer who sought refuge here after religious conflict forced him to leave his homeland. Visitors can sense the creative presence of those who produced literary works within these rooms.
The castle remains privately owned and is not open to visitors. Ongoing renovation work means the outer appearance may continue to change.
Ground floor rooms contain wall drawings that may depict scenes from regional liberation conflicts or portray a local noble family member. These mysterious images spark questions about the people who once inhabited this space.
