Schloss Halberg

This location, at the top of a large hill, is where the Count of Nassau-Saarbrücken built a Baroque palace in the 18th century. The palace was totally destroyed in the Great French War. At the end of the 19th century, Carl Ferdinand von Stumm-Halberg, a coal magnate, had this Neogothic building constructed. It is now the home of Saarländische Rundfunk (Saarland Broadcasting).

Annahof

The person responsible for all the fine Baroque buildings in Blieskastel was Marianne von der Leyen. In 1773, her husband gave her this house and the lake as a Christmas present. It is now a hotel and restaurant with fine views overlooking the water.
