Come and discover the beautiful Barockschloss Delitzsch and learn about the history in the museum.
Further reconstruction gave the castle its French character and still impresses today with its elegant interior. Then, starting in 1860, the residence was used as a women's prison for a few years until the city of Delitzsch bought the castle and it became a museum.
The baroque palace with its baroque garden is now home to a museum, the tourist information office, the registry office and the local music school. The 50-metre high observation tower also offers a 360-degree view of the surrounding area.
Barockschloss Delitzsch Museum
Learn about the life of the duchess dowagers of Saxony-Merseburg, the aristocratic, magnificently furnished living quarters and the everyday life of the servants in the Delitzsch Damenschloss. Information about the castle's history and the town is also available and there are also special exhibitions that highlight the political and cultural history.
Baroque garden – come take a stroll
Originally laid out in 1692 and 1693, the French-style pleasure garden today again has a "parterre de broderie" which, with its brick-filled ornaments, is reminiscent of embroidery. The fan-shaped avenues lined with maple trees are a welcome source of shade in summer.
Weddings in the Castle
You can say 'I do' in the beautiful Barockschloss. You can use the historical wedding room for your civil ceremony, and the baroque garden is also excellent backdrop for original wedding pictures. We are happy to cater to your wedding dreams.
