Schloss Lüchow, Medieval castle ruins in Lüchow, Germany
The remaining tower of Schloss Lüchow stands 24 meters high with five stories, constructed entirely of red brick in a circular design.
Built around 1040 for the Counts of Lüchow, the castle was first documented in 1144 and later acquired by the Dukes of Brunswick-Lüneburg in 1274.
The Amtsturm Museum, housed within the preserved tower, presents exhibits about the regional history of the Wendland area and its Slavic heritage.
Visitors can climb the tower's five floors to access viewing points that provide views across the town of Lüchow and the surrounding countryside.
Archaeological excavations revealed that the castle was constructed on a former Slavic fortress site with a diameter of 75 meters.
