Schloss Leuben, Baroque château in Leuben, Germany
The palace stands on a two-tiered terrace with staircases leading to both the courtyard and park sides, surrounded by a water moat.
Built between 1737 and 1740 by Hans Gottlieb von Thielau, the chief stallmaster under Augustus II, replacing an earlier Renaissance water castle.
The palace design combines French country house architecture with Saxon elements, featuring colored pilasters in the late Dresden Baroque style.
The Leubener Schlossverein association acquired the property in 2004 and initiated restoration efforts with government funding and donations.
Four life-size sandstone statues representing the seasons stand along the symmetrical gardens of the castle island.
