Description

Schloss Ulrichshusen is a manor house in Ulrichshusen, a village belonging to Moltzow in the district of Mecklenburgische Seenplatte. With its three-storey main building and the typical stepped gables, it is one of the most important Renaissance buildings of Mecklenburg. The building lies on a hill on the southern shore of the Ulrichshusener See. Today it is used as a hotel. Outbuildings of the complex serve for various public events. Thus the castle has been, since 1994, one of the main venues of the Festspiele Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, which take place every year during the summer season throughout the federal state.
