Pulsnitz Castle, a Renaissance palace, provides a historic setting for sophisticated and comprehensive rehabilitation medicine, available to both publicly and privately insured patients. The Pulsnitz Castle Clinic has been completely renovated and expanded with a swimming pool, gymnasium, and additional therapy rooms and patient rooms.

The Baroque palace is not the first palace on the site. It was only inaugurated in 1718. Before that, the Eustachius House was the residence of the ruling noble family. During the renovation and reconstruction of the Eustachius House under the Saxon chamberlain Johann Georg von Maxen, building materials were salvaged, which were used for the construction of the new palace. As far as is known, the service rooms were located on the ground floor. The rooms on the upper floor were the living quarters of the ruling family.
