Klempenow Castle, Medieval castle in Breest, Germany

The castle features two distinct towers and defensive walls up to three meters thick, standing on a sand island near the Tollense River.

Built in the 13th century, the castle served as a strategic fortification on the border between Pomerania and Mecklenburg during German settlement campaigns.

The castle serves as a venue for regional festivals and exhibitions organized by KULTUR-TRANSIT-96, fostering local community engagement.

The castle opens for guided tours, allowing visitors to explore the medieval architecture and learn about its transformation through different historical periods.

Following World War II, the castle transformed into a residential complex, housing fourteen refugee families who adapted their living spaces within its ancient walls.
