Wasserburg Flechtingen, Water castle in Flechtingen, Germany

The castle stands on a rocky foundation within lowland terrain, featuring a bergfried tower, defensive walls, and buildings arranged around multiple courtyards.

The first documented mention of the castle dates to 1307 when Heinrich von Schenck received Flechtingen as a fief from Herman, Margrave of Brandenburg-Salzwedel.

The castle displays Gothic architectural elements through its carved beams and decorative features, reflecting medieval German construction techniques and artistic preferences.

While the castle interior remains closed to visitors, people can walk around the castle pond and explore the surrounding park grounds.

The triangular courtyard measures 80 square meters and connects to the outer bailey through a single passage, creating a distinct spatial arrangement.
