Schloss Landestrost

Manor in Neustadt am Rübenberge, Germany

Landestrost Castle (German: Schloss Landestrost) is a castle in the Weser Renaissance style that was built between 1573 and 1584 in Neustadt am Rübenberge in the north German state of Lower Saxony. Integrated into fortifications, together with the town, it developed into an urban fortress typical of the 16th century. The castle was the representative residence and administrative headquarters of Eric II of Brunswick-Lüneburg. During its construction period from 1574 he renamed the town of Neustadt as Landestrost, something which was reverted after his death in 1584.
