Keppschloss, Residential château in Hosterwitz, Dresden, Germany

The Keppschloss features three towers and crenellated walls in neo-gothic style, located on a hillside overlooking the Elbe Valley in Dresden.

Built in 1801 as a pleasure house, the building gained its name Keppschloss in 1840 and underwent major renovations by banker Robert Thode between 1861 and 1863.

Future Pope Leo XII visited this residence in 1808, leading to its temporary nickname 'Little Pope's Castle' among local residents.

Located at Am Keppschloß 27 in Dresden's Hosterwitz district, the château now contains seven luxury apartments ranging from 100 to 250 square meters.

The property includes access to Keppgrund, a natural area with a stream and forest, offering residents a combination of historical architecture and natural surroundings.
