Burgk Castle

Burgk, Germany

Burgk Castle (c. 1403) is a schloss and former castle in the county of Saale-Orla-Kreis in the Thuringian Highlands of Germany, which today houses a museum that portrays the princely lifestyle of years gone by. From the time of its construction in the Middle Ages to 1945 it belonged to the House of Reuß. The schloss and village of Burgk lie on an exposed site on a rock plateau above the village of Burgkhammer and the eponymous reservoir on a bend in the Saale River. It is nine kilometres from the A 9 motorway (Berlin–Munich).
