The Schloss am Sund is a building from 1877 in the Hanseatic city of Stralsund at Gerhart-Hauptmann-Strasse No. 5 there.
The building was erected in 1877 by the shipowner and merchant Eugen Diekelmann as a dowry for the second daughter when she married P. von Richter. The building, built in the Romanesque style in what was then Strandstrasse, served as a brewery . The layout of the building included the brewery building, a residential building, an office and the garden bar, a beer garden known as the “castle garden”. The “Schloßbrauerei” started operations on May 27, 1878. The “Stralsundische Zeitung” reported on the opening ceremony on May 30, 1878: “In the spacious barrel shed of the local new castle brewery (an open hall with a delightful view) a number of gentlemen of various professions and ages met at the invitation of the owner gathered for a tour of the grand-scale brewery. After the richness of a buffet with cold dishes set up on a long table had been tested, the company, led by the owner and builder of the establishment, Mr. Richter, set out on a walk through the factory rooms and followed the explanation of the system and the interior with great interest Establishment of the brewery. (...) We have not given the number of participants, so we do not want to reveal the amount of beer consumed. As far as our customers can go, it should be excellent for everyone. Good luck with the young company. "

In 1885 the brewery changed hands and operated under the name “Meyer & Weidemann”. In 1906 the Stralsund breweries “ Bellevue Brewery ”, “Brauerei Volksgarten” and the “Schloßbrauerei” merged to form the “Hansa Brewery”. After Albert Wertheim had acquired the building in 1914, he applied on March 19, 1914 to convert the house into a residential building. After that the construction costs amounted to 35,000 marks. The application was granted on April 27, 1914 by the building authority. Wertheim, however, initially sold the building to the elementary school teacher Paul Becker. The factory chimneys were demolished and the building converted into residential use. The first tenants moved in in the spring of 1915. The Stralsund painter Elisabeth Büchsel was one of them .
The building was acquired in the 1990s by a Berlin real estate company that had acquired a large number of houses in Stralsund. It was becoming visibly degenerate; Only after the building was bought back was it renovated by another investor.
