The remains of a tower hill castle (moth) at Gut Futterkamp in Blekendorf in the Plön district in Schleswig-Holstein are called Kleiner Schlichtenberg .

The former tower hill made of earth is almost round (length: approx. 27 meters, width: approx. 24 meters), still about 2.20 m high. It was built in a lowland and was protected by two trenches and a wall.

An archaeological investigation in 1975 revealed that there was a wooden building with a cellar about 7 × 9 meters on the tower hill. The access was in the west and was via a bridge.

The castle was built in the 14th century - the dendrochronological examination of the wood revealed that the trees required were felled in 1356/1357. Presumably, the castle was only used for a short time and was probably abandoned by 1400 at the latest.

The castle is - protected by a pasture fence - on the edge of a meadow area and is accessible. The tower hill and the deepening of the cellar are clearly visible. The remains of the castle have been under monument protection as a ground monument since 1967 . The Große Schlichtenberg is located about 200 meters to the southeast .
