Getting there and practical details

Neighborhood
Proschwitz, near Meissen, Saxony

Schloss Proschwitz, a baroque castle and wine estate at Heiliger Grund 2 in Proschwitz near Meissen, Saxony, can be hired for company events, weddings and private celebrations. The largest room, the Festsaal, holds up to 120 people. Five more named rooms cover dinners, tastings and smaller receptions, and an organiser can book the whole castle, a single floor or individual rooms.

Seminars and company events

The estate offers the castle for conferences, team events and product presentations. Its rooms are described as well equipped, with individual service from the team, and the grounds add a garden setting for breaks and outdoor sessions. A group can add a tour of the castle or the vineyard, or a wine tasting led by the estate. The Kaminzimmer, a red salon with a large fireplace and a coat-of-arms ceiling, is suited to tastings and informal gatherings at the end of a day. The official site gives no seminar seating plans, so ask the team for layouts and equipment when you request a date.

Weddings and receptions

The registry office of Meissen keeps a branch in the castle. Civil ceremonies take place in the Chinesischer Pavillon or in the Festsaal. Free ceremonies can be held on the French garden parterre or in quieter parts of the castle park. The Esszimmer, a bright dining room, is presented for wedding dinners, and the Kaminzimmer can serve for bridal preparation before the ceremony. A wedding brochure with a 2026 price list is published on the website. Milestone birthdays and other family celebrations are also planned with the team.

Rooms and capacities

The Festsaal is the largest room of the house and holds up to 120 people. The Canaletto-Zimmer, on the Bel Etage, is a classicist hall with replicas of Canaletto paintings and is used for celebrations and formal dinners.

The official site gives no capacity for these rooms apart from the Festsaal.

Accommodation

The site links a separate holiday apartment on the estate. It does not describe bedrooms for event guests, so confirm with the team how many people can stay on site, and plan hotel rooms in Meissen for larger groups.

Catering
