The Saatzig castle ruin is an abandoned castle from the 14th century. It is located on the northern edge of Saatzig in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship , Poland .
history
The castle was one of the largest defenses in West Pomerania near the border with the Mark Brandenburg . It was probably built at the turn of the 13th to the 14th century, but was only mentioned later. At first it was the seat of the Knights of Steglitz.
The Saatzig Castle Court existed at the castle, which also existed after the takeover of Western Pomerania by Brandenburg. It was mentioned in the regimental constitution of 1654.
The ruin was named after a town fire in 1781 in the neighboring Jacobshagen used for quarrying for the reconstruction of the city.
In Ludwig Wilhelm Brüggemann's detailed description of the current state of the Royal Prussian Duchy of Western and Western Pomerania from 1784, the castle is described as "still of a considerable size", but "so dilapidated that it can no longer be inhabited".
The castle hill is still visible from the large complex. There are also remains of walls and walls as well as fragments of a ditch . Parts of the brickwork were later used to rebuild Dobrzany.
