Schloss Nickern, Renaissance château in Nickern, Dresden, Germany

The two-story Renaissance building features a rectangular floor plan and a bell tower with a dome and lantern in Baroque style.

The structure evolved from a 12th-century water castle owned by Knights of Karas to its Renaissance form after Georg Alnpeck acquired it in 1511.

The castle maintains a connection to regional nobility through architectural elements, including the Alnpeck family coat of arms in the old Leuben church.

The castle offers rental spaces for weekend events, with specific regulations regarding noise control and outdoor activities to protect the historical structure.

After a 5 million euro renovation, the castle sold for 270,000 euros in 2004, leading Dresden to receive the Schleudersachse negative prize for tax money waste.
