Schwedt Palace, Baroque castle in Schwedt/Oder, Germany
The palace featured a three-wing complex with two towers flanking the garden facade and a 100-meter wide chestnut-lined avenue leading to the courtyard.
Constructed between 1670 and 1688 under Electress Dorothea's initiative, the palace served as residence for the Brandenburg-Schwedt branch of the Hohenzollern family.
Dutch architect Cornelis Ryckwaert incorporated Renaissance elements into the Baroque design, creating a structure that reflected both architectural traditions.
After destruction in 1945 and demolition in 1962, the former palace grounds now contain a cultural center housing the Uckermärkischen Bühnen Schwedt.
A scale model of the palace, funded by local donations, stands alongside seven replicated Baroque sandstone sculptures and a historic sundial from 1740.
