Schloss Hagen can host conferences, company events, weddings and private parties for up to 100 guests. The castle stands in Probsteierhagen, a village in Schleswig-Holstein close to the Baltic coast and the state capital Kiel. It has been fully renovated and is now run as a venue for culture and events.
Seminars and company events
The official site presents the castle as suited to conferences and company events of up to 100 people. Historic rooms of different sizes are available, fitted with modern conference technology. Rooms can be booked on their own or combined, with floor areas of about 40, 50, 75 and 100 square meters, so a small workshop and a larger plenary can both find a fit. Indoor and outdoor areas can also be combined for one event, which is useful for a coffee break in the park or a summer reception.
Weddings and receptions
Couples can hold the civil ceremony in the Great Hall or in the baroque Blomezimmer, with up to 100 guests. For the reception, the doors to the neighboring rooms are opened. Food is served from the kitchen wing on the same floor, which keeps service close to the guests. The castle park and a nearby hedge maze give room for photographs and a walk between ceremony and dinner. The site also names birthdays, anniversaries, confirmations and golden wedding celebrations as typical private events.
Rooms and capacities
- Kaminsaal: 100 square meters, up to 90 people, with the Blomezimmer available as an addition for a reception.
- Blomezimmer: 85 square meters, up to 40 people.
- Herrenzimmer: 52 square meters, up to 30 people.
- Pogwischzimmer: 42 square meters, with restored wall paintings from the 18th century.
The castle also lists three cellar spaces on its site: the Great Vaulted Cellar, the Wine Cellar and the Kitchen Cellar. Their capacities are not published, so ask the venue before planning an event in them.
Catering
Organizers can bring a caterer of their choice, or the venue can arrange the whole event, including catering and service. The castle also has a café on the premises, which the site mentions in connection with its public markets.
History and setting
The castle takes its character from the noble families Pogwisch and Blome, whose names remain attached to two of the rooms. The building is listed as a heritage monument in Schleswig-Holstein. The municipality of Probsteierhagen renovated it with support from European rural development funds and developed it as a place for culture and events. Public markets are held there each summer and autumn.
Getting there
The address is Schlossstrasse 16, 24253 Probsteierhagen. Kiel is the nearest city. Ask the venue about parking and transfers for larger groups, as the official pages do not describe them.
