Burg Schlitz, one of classicism’s most important buildings in Germany, can look back on a two-hundred-year-old history.
Erected from 1806 to 1823 on behalf of Hans Count von Schlitz by architect Friedrich Adam Leiblin as a family residence on the relics of an old castle, it has been diligently and elaborately renovated and reconstructed from 1992 to 1999 with a capital expenditure of more than 60 million Euro and opened as Castle-Hotel in 1999.
Thanks to mindful and authentic restoration works, Burg Schlitz presents itself today as a stately mansion offering its guests repose, tranquility and unobtrusive luxury.
HANS GRAF VON SCHLITZ (1763-1831)
They will come and go – my guests. Their joy is also my joy, Their delight is also my delight. They will come, long after my pulses. I shall greet them, while they are walking here, where I loved this soil so ardently.
