Halbes Schloss, Cultural heritage monument in Langenleuba-Niederhain, Germany

The Halbes Schloss features 121 exterior windows within its four-wing baroque architecture, forming a symmetrical layout around a central courtyard.

Originally a medieval water castle in 1290 belonging to Altenburg burgraves, the structure was transformed into a baroque palace between 1708 and 1711.

The building contains numerous original baroque decorative elements from the early 18th century, reflecting the architectural preferences of that period.

The castle underwent security measures in late 2019 and since 2022 has been undergoing revitalization works under non-profit management.

In 2015, this substantial baroque castle was sold at auction for only 22,000 euros, despite its extensive architectural and historical value.
