history

The later Neurode Castle was built on the left high bank of the Walditz on the site of the "Newenrode" farm, which was first mentioned in 1352 and was the seat of the landlord Hannus ( Hanns / Hanß ) Wustehube. This sold the farm with the town of "Newenrode" and other possessions on September 20 th. J. to Hensel von Donyn . After the destruction in the Hussite Wars , the palace complex was rebuilt with four wings in 1428–1464 . A renovation followed in 1536–1550, as in 1630. After the Thirty Years' War, the palace was expanded (before 1663) to include a further wing with a garden hall and a representative hall above it, as well as a bailey on the city side. The design was created by the Italian builder Andrea Carove.

After the death of the Bohemian King George of Podebrady , his son Heinrich d. Ä. in his capacity as count and feudal owner of the County of Glatz 1572 Schloss und Herrschaft Neurode to his father's partisan, Georg Stillfried von Rattonitz . The castle and rule of Neurode remained with his descendants even after the attack on Prussia in 1742/1763. Due to financial difficulties, Friedrich August von Stillfried sold the Neurode castle and estate to Anton Alexander von Magnis on Eckersdorf in 1810 . Since both were forcibly administered, the transfer of ownership to his son Anton von Magnis (1786–1861) did not take place until 1821. Since the Counts Magnis resided at their Eckersdorf Castle, Neurode Castle now served as the seat of Magnis’s property administration from 1899 to The mine administration was housed there for expropriation in 1945. In 1901 the interiors were renewed and partially rebuilt.
