Schloss Senftenberg, Renaissance fortress in Senftenberg, Germany

The fortress features a commanding stone structure with defensive earthen ramparts, powder tower, commander's house, and underground passages spanning the grounds.

Built in the 16th century upon medieval castle foundations, this military structure served to protect Saxon borders through strategic positioning.

The fortress houses a regional museum displaying 2,500 art pieces from 130 Lausitz artists alongside exhibitions about local mining history.

The site opens daily except Mondays from 10:30, with adult tickets at 6 euros and free entry for children under 16.

The museum includes a full-scale replica coal mine tunnel in the castle cellar, demonstrating mining techniques from 100 years ago.
