Jakubzburg Mortka

Highlight • Castle

A castle that looks exactly like it did in the Middle Ages?
In the small village of Mortka, in the midst of the Upper Lusatian heath and pond landscape, you can see a medieval castle designed, planned and built in the 21st century. But not only that. You can also celebrate and spend the night in our castle.

The Jakubzburg is a novelty in all of Europe. The rustic interior and the romantic ambience of this imposing castle complex fit perfectly into the picturesque landscape. We are near one of the largest and most beautiful biosphere reserves, surrounded by lakes, floodplains and forests. The dinosaur park in Kleinwelka and the boulder park in Nochten are not far away either. The historic energy factory in Knappenrode is in the immediate vicinity.

If you are planning a bike tour along the picturesque Lake District route or the Niederlausitzer mining tour, a visit to the Jakubzburg Mortka should definitely not be missed. In the immediate vicinity of the castle, we offer all cyclists and hikers a cozy place to relax in our cycling barn.
