Oh the confusion with castle (Burg) and castle (Schloss), it took me a second to get that difference. If you want to call it 'oldest' it would have been more understandable if you said palace, chateau, residence or manor house. It is not the oldest castle (Burg) in Germany, however the oldest castle (Schloss) in Germany ;)

@henningbartels62452 жыл бұрын
@@DWTravel a Burg = castle is simular to a fortress and has a military and strategic purpose. In Germany you will easily find a Burg or a Burg ruin which is older than the one in Meißen. A Schloss = palace or chateau has a residential and representative character. Sometimes there are fluid boundaries and this might be the case in Meißen as well: former castles were remodelled to serve as a residence etc. The period in the 19th century can be particularly tricky, when there was a romantic view towards the Middle ages. It became fashionable to build residences which look like castles or using architectural fearutes of castle. But all there defense features are fake and for pure decoration only: Schloss Wernigerode in the Harz mountains, Schloss Marienburg near Hannover or Neuschwanstein in Bavaria to name a few. Anyhow, Albrechsburg is regarded to be the oldest "Schloss" in what is today Germany, but it is not the oldest castle or Burg.

You got something important wrong here. The Albrechtsburg is not Germany's oldest castle, there are many much older castles in Germany, it was Germany's first palace. And that is the special thing about it, because only in the late Middle Ages the rulers and very rich began to built large homes not to be protected and to sit out something like a siege in safety, but to live in a home that is just beautiful, artful and luxurious.

Now that's a tricky one. In German, there are two meanings for a ‘castle’. One is a "Burg" (a fortress, built for protection) and one is a "Schloss"(a palace with playfull architecture, gardens, etc.) And to make it even more complicated: The differences sometimes blur.. But if we start from this definition above, Albrechtsburg Castle is indeed the oldest German castle (Palace) . 😅😉
