Schloss Rauschendorf, Castle in Sonnenberg, Germany

The castle features a symmetrical eleven-axial facade with vaulted hallways, varied oak parquet floors, and neo-Renaissance architectural elements throughout the structure.

Built in 1723 for Count Hermann von Wartensleben, the castle underwent reconstruction in 1923 following a devastating fire that destroyed the original structure in 1921.

The estate represents traditional German baroque architecture, maintaining its historical design elements while serving multiple community functions through different time periods.

The castle complex encompasses approximately 700 hectares of land, including agricultural facilities, a manager's house, and various service buildings for estate operations.

During World War II, the Swiss Embassy temporarily relocated to Schloss Rauschendorf after air raids on Berlin affected diplomatic operations.
