Heuckewalde Castle, Water castle in Gutenborn, Germany
The castle forms a four-wing structure with a trapezoidal layout, featuring a 39-meter Romanesque tower constructed from sandstone blocks in the eastern section.
First documented in 1152, the castle belonged to the Posa Monastery near Zeitz and later served as a hunting residence for the Bishops of Naumburg.
The castle tower, built between 1250 and 1370, represents medieval German defensive architecture with its strategic position surrounded by marshes and water.
The castle opens for guided tours every second Sunday of the month, allowing visitors to explore the baroque ceiling gallery and climb the restored guard tower.
The castle contains a carved cabinet with an inscription referring to Georg Pflug, who owned the property in 1606 and contributed to its residential transformation.
