Schloss Zörbig, Medieval château in Zörbig, Germany.
Schloss Zörbig is a castle complex located on a hill to the south of the old town center, occupying a large area of grounds. The buildings are surrounded by a moat and comprise multiple structures arranged across the property.
The castle originated from Slavic fortifications in the 10th century and was first documented in 961. It later came under the control of the Wettin dynasty, which ruled the region for centuries.
The castle now houses various cultural institutions that serve the community. Visitors can explore spaces where local archives, a library, and a performance hall support daily cultural life.
The site is best visited through guided tours, which are offered on a regular basis. It is advisable to check opening times in advance, as these may vary depending on the season.
Hidden beneath the castle grounds is a fully preserved civil defense bunker from the era of the German Democratic Republic, which visitors can explore through special guided tours. This underground facility offers insight into the civilian protection measures of a historical period.
