Historic Streleburg Friedland

Belonging to the association of the three StreleBurg castles, Friedland Castle was also owned by the Knights of Strele. The roots of this ancient Lusatian dominion can be traced to the burgraviate of Strehla on the Elbe in Saxony.
Besides the two StreleBurg castles Beeskow and Storkow, the castle set in the tranquil Friedland also has an impressive and surprising history, as well as being one of the best preserved castles in Brandenburg.

In the lovingly furnished museum apartment, familiar images are brought back to life through 100 years of home decor. Our exhibitions of indigenous animals and historical objects of everyday life are especially interesting for children.

The gallery offers art and culture featuring different artistic styles with exhibitions that vary several times a year – and you might even encounter our legendary “White Woman”. We also offer guided tours of the castle. In the case of guided group tours, please reserve in advance; the same applies to guided tours of Friedland.
