Schlass Turelbaach

The castle demonstrates classical architecture with stone walls, colored glass windows, and extensive surrounding gardens within the Guttland region of Luxembourg.

Pol Gilson constructed the initial wooden structure in 1964, which burned down in 1973, leading to the creation of the current stone castle.

The castle represents a modern interpretation of medieval architecture, showcasing individual craftsmanship through its handmade construction over four decades.

The municipality of Mertzig maintains the castle grounds, which are open to visitors for exterior viewing, while the interior remains closed to the public.

This castle stands out as it was built entirely by one self-taught craftsman, Pol Gilson, who completed the construction without professional building assistance.
