Rantzau Castle is a neo-Gothic city palace in Lübeck's cathedral district, the core of which is a medieval canon curia. The palace, also popularly known as the palace, is located in Kapitelstraße on the corner of the parade not far from Lübeck Cathedral on the former parade ground of the Lübeck city military. The origins of the canon curia go back to the 13th century, when houses for the members of the cathedral chapter were built in the immunity area of the Lübeck cathedral. Only here were free-standing buildings allowed to be built in the Middle Ages, in contrast to the otherwise applicable city law, which prescribed block development. After the property was first mentioned in 1290, canon Mohr built it for the first time. The core of the building from the 13th century probably had the shape of a residential tower. The brick-faced rear facade and the Gothic vault in the cellar have been preserved from the 15th century. In the bay room there are remains of wood paneling with coats of arms and the year 1586. Painted ceiling beams and baroque door frames on the ground floor date from the early 17th century. In 1760, the three-storey building, which was long rectangular up to then, was expanded to form an almost square floor plan with two side extensions and was roughly the same size as it is today.
