Hohenthurm Castle in the Saalekreis district in Saxony-Anhalt is a castle complex on the grounds of Hohenthurm Castle. The keep and the church of the castle have been preserved. There may be other remains of the medieval castle in the buildings. The peripheral house development is easy to understand.
Hohenthurm Castle originally belonged to the Mark Landsberg. It was owned by ministeriales who were Burgmänner of Landsberg. Its first representative was an Arnoldus de alta turri, mentioned in 1244. The Thuringian Landgrave, Albrecht the Degenerate, pledged the lordship as part of the Margraviate of Landsberg to the Ascanian Margrave Henry of Brandenburg, from whose hands it in turn passed as a pledge to Duke Magnus of Brunswick. Frederick II, the Serious, Margrave of Meissen, bought back the Mark of Landsberg in 1347 for 8000 Schock Groschen. Hohenthurm was added to the castle district of Reideburg and finally remained with the Archbishopric of Magdeburg. The last ministeriale, Hans von Hoen Torn, was enfeoffed in 1385 by Archbishop Albrecht with farm, church and all rights, fiefs and interest. In 1398, the von Hohenthurm family died out. The settled fief was reassigned to Leonhard von Steuben in 1398. He sold it in 1418 to Otto von Dieskau, who sold it to Klaus von Trotha, from whom Hans von Rauchhaupt took it over in 1438. Until 1653, the von Rauchhaupt family owned Hohenthurm almost continuously. In 1570, the castle was described as dilapidated by the historian Torquatus.
