Schloss Schieder, Baroque castle in Schieder-Schwalenberg, Germany.

Schloss Schieder is a plain Baroque building with a high hipped roof and flat triangular gables, designed by the Tyrolean architect Joseph Falck in the style of Dutch classicism. Beside it stands the 1705–1708 bakehouse and brewhouse with the castle chapel, later called the Palais. The Baroque garden laid out from 1701 has a parterre with a central fountain basin, a canal and three terraces with stairs and cascades.

Graf Rudolph zur Lippe-Brake began building the castle and garden in 1703; the architect was Joseph Falck, from Tirol, who had worked on Kloster Corvey. When the Lippe-Brake line died out in 1773, the property passed to Schaumburg-Lippe, and in 1789 it returned to the princely house of Lippe-Detmold. It served as a summer residence until the November Revolution of 1918.

The castle now houses the Haus des Gastes, a Volkshochschule, a music school and, until 2023, the town library. The park has been open to the public since 1914, and the baroque southern section was reconstructed from 2006 and reopened in 2009.

The park opened to the public in 1914; the southern baroque section was reconstructed from 2006 and reopened in 2009. The central axis runs from the parterre with its fountain basin past a canal to three terraces with stairs and cascades. A lime avenue of 260 trees, laid out in 1705, crossed the Emmer.

The 1705 lime avenue had 260 trees and crossed the Emmer river. The baroque garden south of the park was reconstructed from 2006 and reopened in 2009, restoring the parterre, canal and three terraces with cascades along the central axis.
