Reppiner Burg, Artificial ruins in Schwerin, Germany.

The Reppiner Burg features a tower with a conical roof, metal pinnacle, and an observation platform accessed by 52 exterior steps.

The structure was built in 1907 as a memorial to Friedrich Wilhelm, who drowned in the North Sea in 1897, following the concept of an incomplete castle.

The name Reppin derives from Slavic origins meaning turnip land, reflecting the agricultural heritage of the peninsula where the castle stands.

Visitors can reach the observation deck to view Lake Schwerin, the islands of Kaninchenwerder and Ziegelwerder, and the city skyline across the water.

The castle contains a room with a masonry grill and incorporates neo-romantic elements despite being constructed solely for decorative purposes rather than defense.
