Schloss Schwante

Schloss Schwante is a château in Oberkrämer comprising three interconnected building sections with two lateral wings from the 18th century. The complex displays typical features of a Baroque manor house with residential and service areas.

The complex was built between 1741 and 1743 under Erasmus Wilhelm von Redern, replacing an earlier fortified structure from 1618. The construction followed Baroque principles and quickly became a significant noble residence.

The property served as an important residential seat for nobility and continues to shape the character of the region. Visitors can walk through the rooms and understand how the ruling class lived within these walls.

The grounds are accessible by public transport and offer visitors plenty of space to explore the exterior areas. The structure with multiple wings allows self-guided exploration at your own pace.

During the 1930s, decorative sandstone features including lion statues were added to the entrance, shaping the appearance of the facade. These details show how the property was reshaped and adapted over the centuries.
