Burg Posterstein

A small, well-preserved castle with a characteristic Bergfried castle and a museum. Posterstein jest niewielki, lecz treściwy: oferuje bergfried, kaplicę, muzeum regionalne i historię niezwykłego salonu intelektualnego.

History

Posterstein was established in the 12th century as part of the colonization of the lands east of Saława. Later owners transformed the stronghold into a more comfortable residence.

The museum presents the history of the region and the living room of Princess Dorothea von Kurland in nearby Löbichau.

Kompaktowy układ pozwala szybko zrozumieć budowę średniowiecznej siedziby. Najmocniejszym akcentem jest bergfried, którego wnętrze i widok z góry pokazują skalę zamku oraz krajobraz wschodniej Turyngii.

Muzeum prowadzi opowieść poza mury, ku księżnej Dorothei von Kurland i salonowi w Löbichau. Dzięki temu wizyta łączy architekturę obronną z historią idei, spotkań oraz życia kulturalnego regionu.
