Very nice castle waiting for restoration. It's a shame if it would expire.
Unfortunately, you hardly have any insight.

View of the Schöningen open-cast mine

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the lignite mining and the consequences for the environment, the subsequent use with the lake and forest 🌳 is now being worked on. A wonderful natural area will definitely be created here!
