Schloss Schwedesdorf, Renaissance castle in Lauenau, Germany.
The castle consists of a main building and a side wing arranged at right angles, featuring a hexagonal stair tower added in 1606.
Otto von Münchhausen initiated the construction of Schloss Schwedesdorf in 1596, completing the structure by 1600 as part of his personal estate development.
The interior displays three decorated chimneys with ornamental scrollwork, representing the architectural preferences of German nobility during the Renaissance period.
While the castle remains under private ownership of the Münchhausen family, visitors can explore the public garden with exotic trees on its western side.
The castle bears a stone inscription reading 'Otto von Munnichhusen, Anno domini 1600' commemorating its completion date and original builder.
