The castle is now the seat of the German Judicial Academy. It can usually be visited on Wednesdays outside of school holidays.

Bridge closed to motor vehicles, from Linum-Horst tarmac road, behind it only cobblestones - the further towards the rampart, the more overgrown.

Two fires in the mid-18th century (including in 1746) destroyed the old fieldstone church and parts of the town. Under the supervision of the "Churmärkisches Amts-Kirchen-Revenuen-Direktorium" and with the support of the Prussian king and surrounding villages, the current building was erected from 1751 to 1755.

The Wichmann Linden tree in Neuruppin is a living natural monument – a tree that breathes history and enriches the city with its serene presence. This impressive winter linden stands near the city wall by the Neuruppin Monastery Church and is one of the oldest trees in the region. With an estimated age of over 700 years, it is not only a botanical highlight but also a symbol of both continuity and change. The tree is hollow after being struck by lightning, but this does not diminish its majestic appearance – on the contrary: it acts as a venerable guardian of the city's history. https://www.baumkunde.de/baumregister/3327-wichmannlinde_in_neuruppin/

Lake Ruppin covers an area of 8.25 km² and is 14 km long, making it the longest lake in Brandenburg. Its maximum depth is approximately 24 m. A roughly 25 km long circular path leads around the lake, inviting hikers and especially cyclists to explore. To the south of the lake lies Wustrau, a village of about 1,100 inhabitants, which is well worth a visit. The lake receives its water from the Rhin River via the Zermützelsee, the Tetzensee, and the Molchowsee at the Altruppin lock, and flows into the Bützsee via the Wustrauer Rhin. https://www.goruma.de/staedte/neuruppin/neuruppin-sehenswuerdigkeiten

The monumental stainless steel sculpture "Parzival am See" (Parzival by the Lake) on the shore of Lake Ruppin is far more than just a work of art; it is a powerful symbol of change and hope. Standing a proud 17 meters tall, Parzival, created by the artist Matthias Zágon Hohl-Stein, was unveiled in 1998 to mark the town's renaming as "Fontanestadt" (Fontane City). The symbolism is particularly striking: In one hand, Parzival holds a windmill, in the other an ark – symbols of progress and preservation. The sculpture represents a new Neuruppin without a garrison, a city on the move, confronting its history while simultaneously looking to the future. An inspiring place that invites reflection – and a fantastic photo opportunity right on the lakeshore. Anyone visiting Neuruppin should definitely take a look at this modern-day knight. https://tourismus-neuruppin.de/kultur-erleben-neuruppin/sehenswertes-neuruppin/119-parzival-am-see-neuruppin
