Today's palace square still gives an idea of the round layout of the former castle complex. Next to the Crooked House shines the impressive Renaissance castle. The castle is currently being renovated. The outer shell is finished, but the inside is still being built vigorously. It will be interesting to see with what concept the castle will be reopened.

The monastery was built in the 13th century as a Cistercian convent for virgins. After an eventful history, it is now owned by the "Klosterverein Rühn e.V.", which lovingly takes care of the facility and has brought life back to the place with a clever concept. Look at everything in peace and let yourself be pampered in the monastery tavern. You can find more information and the opening hours here: https://www.klosterverein-ruehn.de/de/kloster/verkoestigung.

Against the backdrop of the town of Bütow, there is untouched nature here again. The bridge is slightly elevated and you have a nice view over the lowland.
