Schloss Wolfsbrunnen

Schloss Wolfsbrunnen is a castle standing on a hill near Werratalsee lake, built in the early 1900s with a prominent tower and symmetrical wings. Today it operates as a hotel with guest rooms, a restaurant, multiple event spaces, and amenities including a sauna and steam bath.

A Prussian nobleman named Alexander von Keudell received the property as a gift from a wealthy industrialist and built it into his residence in the early 1900s. Several years after World War II, it served as a care facility under international administration.

After World War II, the castle became a refuge for children who had lost their parents and received care within its walls. The building held deep meaning as a place of recovery and support during those difficult years.

The castle sits on a hillside that is easy to locate from the town of Schwebda with good visibility from surrounding areas. Visitors planning to stay overnight or dine will find rooms and meals available, with facilities positioned for convenient access.

Hidden in the castle's courtyard is a historic spring called Wolfsborn, which gave the building its name. This ancient water source was carefully preserved by an architect and remains visible today, adding a hidden layer to the site's story.
