'Schloss Burgk.'

The late gothic Burgk castle rises high above the meandering river Saale. Most remarkable is the separate, round Hungerturm (hunger tower) with its half-timbered extension looking like a knight's helmet from an eastern fairy tale. The still fully intact, late gothic kitchen with Germany's biggest stove, no less than 21 meters high, is definitely worth a visit. And during the tourist season the chapel with its rich rococo interior hosts weekly concerts on the famous Silbermann organ. Photo Paul Smit.

'Schloss Charlottenburg.'

When roaming through the baroque, rococo, romantic, classicist and Biedermeier interiors it is hard to believe that bombs devastated Schloss Charlottenburg in 1943. Originally it was built as a present of elector Friedrich III to his wife Sophie Charlotte, and post-war Berlin went into full overdrive to return this architectural and historical jewel to its citizens. Berliners love to go there, especially on hot summer days when the park and waters offer shade and cooling. Photo Paul Smit.
