Schloss Choren+

Schloss Choren was commissioned by the Saxon General Crown Post Director Carl Leonhard Marschall von Biberstein and built by Samuel Locke in 1755. The castle is adorned with a curved driveway and an outdoor staircase and is surrounded by farm buildings. In 1945, the owners were dispossessed and expelled by the communists. After this, the castle served as a school until the end of the 1980s. In 1995/96, the building was renovated and restored to its current state.
