Schloss Burkersdorf, Manor house in Burkersdorf, Germany
Description
Schloss Burkersdorf is a two-story plastered manor house crowned by a distinctive four-story mansard roof. Its facade features a central projecting section with an early classical entrance and retains its original wooden door.
History
The site dates back to 1205 as a knight's estate that passed through several noble families over the centuries. The current building was constructed around 1730 by members of the Carlowitz family.
Culture
