Elbschloss Bleckede, Heritage château in Bleckede, Germany.

The two-wing castle complex stands on elevated ground near the Elbe River, featuring half-timbered construction and a medieval tower base.

First mentioned in 1270 as a fortress of the Dukes of Saxe-Lauenburg, the castle changed ownership multiple times during the Lüneburg War of Succession until 1383.

The castle includes exhibits about the Elbe Valley biosphere, an Elbe fish aquarium, and a viewing tower integrated into the medieval tower structure.

The complex functions as an information center for the Lower Saxony Elbe Valley Biosphere Reserve and houses the local tourist information office.

The structure combines a north wing built in 1600 with timber framing and a western wing added in 1743 in baroque architectural style.
