Today, the baroque Kossenblatt Castle stands on the site of a medieval moated castle. Field Marshal and Minister J. A. Reichsgraf von Barfuß had the castle built between 1699 and 1712. However, the field marshal died before the castle was completed and his wife, née Eleonore Countess von Dönhoff, had the castle completed. Theodor Fontane wrote down numerous legends surrounding the family and its wealth. In 1736, King Friedrich Wilhelm I acquired the castle as a retirement home, but only stayed there for a few months until his death in 1740. In the following years the owners of the castle changed frequently and in 1967 the castle was finally restored. The castle is currently privately owned.
