Böge Castle (Schleswig-Holstein)
Böge lock

The Böge-Schloss (Danish Bygge ) is an abandoned Niederungsburg in the form of a tower hill castle (Motte) in the municipality of Ausacker in the Schleswig-Flensburg district in Schleswig-Holstein .

location

The location of the Böge Castle is on the eastern edge of the village of Ausacker about 10 kilometers southeast of the city of Flensburg , whose inner city ​​was protected in the Middle Ages by the extensive Flensburg city fortifications . To the north of Ausacker is Husby , 2.5 kilometers away , the former center of the Husbyharde administrative district . The Winderatter See is also 1.5 kilometers away . Several castles have survived for the Husby area, for example Alt-Seegaard Castle on Lake Winderatter. The location on the Kielstau river also made the Niederungsburg a moated castle .

history

It is unclear when the castle was built. Parts of the Ausacker area are said to have belonged to the Edelhof. In the traditional sources the castle is known under the name "Böge-Schloss". The location of the castle, the castle square with its hilltop, is called "Boy", "Bygg" or "Böge". The castle name was first recorded in writing in 1785 and goes back to the Danish bygge for build / building or bøge for beeches . It is not known when the Böge Castle was abandoned or destroyed. In the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, stones were still plowed when the castle grounds were plowed. The landowner and topographer Henning Oldekop (1846–1923) reported in 1906: “[...] an old castle stood on the Kielstau [...]; the moat is still visible, and remains of the wall are still being found. ”The square has remained uninhabited to this day.

description

The Burgplatz, located right next to the Kielsau, is now used as farmland. The approximate overall dimensions of the castle complex were 53 × 56 meters. Today the tower hill has a diameter of about 40 meters. However, the flat elevation is difficult to see these days. A moat around it is said to have originally enclosed the dome, which Jakob Röschmann documented in the 1960s with a depth of half a meter. Today the ditch is apparently still a five to seven meter wide hollow.
