Description

Caputh Castle is a small castle located in Caputh in the municipality of Schwielowsee, near Potsdam. It was described by Theodor Fontane in his Promenades of the Brandenburg March.
Caputh Palace is the only preserved castle from the early Baroque period in the vicinity of Potsdam. There was here at the beginning of the sixteenth century a summer residence of Princess Catherine of Brandenburg-Küstrin, wife of Joachim III Frederick of Brandenburg, which was destroyed during the Thirty Years' War. Philippe de La Chièze built a new castle from 1662 for the Great Elector Frederick-William who acquired Caputh and its lands, as well as those of Weinberg, later. He donated it in 1671 to his second wife, Dorothée-Sophie, who had it enlarged and embellished.
