Wasserburg Turow, Medieval water castle in Glewitz, Germany
Wasserburg Turow is a medieval water castle in Glewitz consisting of a main castle structure and an adjoining manor farm. The complex sits within landscaped grounds featuring lakes and streams that form the historic moat system around the buildings.
Monks from Neuenkamp Monastery built the initial fortification here during the 12th century. The castle's first documented reference appears in written records from 1387.
The Blue Hall in the main building was transformed into a chapel around 1900 and holds painted canvas wallpapers from the early 1800s that still decorate the walls. Visitors can see how this space serves as a venue for weddings and other ceremonies, showing how the castle adapts historical spaces for modern use.
The castle is best visited on weekends when the cafe opens and visitors can explore the historic buildings and green grounds. Walking around the park and gardens is straightforward, so wear good shoes as you move through the property.
The property offers accommodations for up to 35 guests in individually decorated rooms, making it a private retreat destination. Summer camping options are also available directly in the park and orchard areas surrounding the main buildings.
