After the school closed, the Hagen Manor House, known to the local community as a castle for generations, was converted into a cultural center. After severe mold and mildew infestation was discovered at the beginning of the 21st century, the almost 400-year-old building underwent extensive renovations from 2007 to 2010. The castle remained closed during this time, and the site's usage concept was revised. Hagen has been open to visitors again since 2011. The castle's rooms can be rented for private events, and concerts and readings are also held there. Apartments and a doctor's office have been created on the upper floor.

Hagen was first mentioned in 1264 as indago comitis ("Count's Hag") in the Kiel city register. Within the boundaries of the later estate lay a small village called Schrevendorf (s'Grevendorf), and to the west lies the noble estate called Schrevenborn (s'Grevenborn, the Count's Well). All this indicates that the area northeast of Kiel was once a hunting ground of the territorial lords, the Schauenburg Counts of Holstein, who resided in Kiel Castle. The noble estate in Hagen (as well as in Schrevendorf) was therefore not established until the 16th century, after King Christian I of Denmark was elected the new ruler of the Duchy of Schleswig and the County of Holstein in 1460, and Kiel was ceded to the Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorf line in 1544, which resided in Gottorf Castle in Schleswig and no longer needed the Kiel hunting ground.

Hagen Castle is the ideal location for your dream wedding – a historic gem surrounded by a lush park and stunning scenery near the Baltic Sea and the state capital of Kiel.

Catering can be seamlessly arranged via the kitchen wing located on the same floor. In the afternoon and early evening, the expansive park and the small town of Probsteierhagen offer lovely spots for a stroll in the fresh air. Of course, the bride and groom shouldn't miss the nearby maze. This is where you'll find your soulmate! We are happy to answer any questions you may have about your wedding planning.

The bathing area at the newly designed playground is popular with young and old. Around 80 years ago, bathing in the lake was strictly regulated: girls and women bathed on the eastern side of the lake, from the "Laak", which was still undeveloped at the time, while boys and men were allowed to bathe opposite from the "Milschkamp". Ice skating in winter The lake also offers leisure activities in winter, or rather in cold winters, when it is covered with a stable surface of ice. Then you can see ice skaters, hockey players, sledders and walkers on the ice. At weekends, visitors come from far and wide to enjoy this pleasure. At the request of the owner, it should be noted at this point that the lake is privately owned. With all the great opportunities that the lake offers the public, it should not be forgotten that people and, above all, animals live here who want and need peace and quiet.
