Reinbek Castle (German: Schloss Reinbek), located in Reinbek in southern Schleswig-Holstein, was built in the 16th century as a secondary residence for the ducal house of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorf. It is one of the oldest buildings from the reign of Duke Adolf I and is regarded as the best example of the Renaissance style in Schleswig-Holstein. The castle was restored from 1977 to 1987 and now serves as an art and cultural center for the town of Reinbek.
