CASTEL SCHWEINSBURG - This castle looks back on a long history. It was first mentioned in 973 as a defensive post. In the 12th century a massive castle surrounded by a moat was built on this spot. In 1413 the castle and the territory went to the margraves of Meissen, member of the Wettin Dynasty, the oldest and one of the most powerful dynasties in Germany. The name Schweinsburg stems from the many wild boar that roamed the forests around the castle. Over the centuries the castle changed owners several times as it was mostly used for private purposes. From 1900 to 1908 it housed a pottery factory in one of the wings. However, growing dept forced the present owner to sell the castle to a wealthy yarn merchant from the nearby city of Zwickau who lived there until 1945 when the Russian army occupied the castle. During this time the tower of the castle was blown up. In the years that followed the castle had various municipal uses. In recent years it was totally renovated and made into a modern conference center and hotel that is operating and profitable. The castle is an exceptional buy. Price: € 8.500.000,-- plus 3,5% (€ 297 000) poperty sale tax.
