Water castle Quilow, Renaissance fortified house in Groß Polzin, Germany

Water Castle Quilow is a Renaissance manor house with preserved architectural elements and moats surrounding the entire structure. The building combines defensive features with residential comfort in a style typical of its era.

The castle was built in 1575 and served local nobility as both a defensive stronghold and a residence. Over centuries, the structure underwent various modifications that reflected changing needs and uses.

The castle displays exhibitions with portraits, tiles, and inventory lists that document daily life across four centuries of manor ownership. These objects show how residents lived and used their rooms.

Following extensive renovations completed in 2020, this site welcomes visitors and hosts workshops, art exhibitions, and community events. Check accessibility and parking options before planning your visit.

The restoration deliberately left visible traces of past modifications and changes to make the building's evolution readable. Visitors can follow the different phases of how the structure transformed over time.
