Seminars and company events
Schlosshotel Burg Schlitz hosts management meetings, supervisory board sessions, seminars, small conferences, incentives and team events, with 16 rooms and suites for delegates staying overnight. The castle stands in Hohen Demzin, in the lake and hill country known as the Mecklenburg Switzerland, in northeastern Germany.
Meetings take place in several salons and halls, each with its own period atmosphere. They come equipped with a smartboard, flipchart, moderation case, projector and screen, and Wi-Fi. Two day packages, Burg Schlitz Classic and Burg Schlitz Premium, are sold for full or half days. Both cover the room and equipment, a welcome coffee with pastries and canapés, a coffee break with juice and fruit, a seasonal lunch or buffet, and water, coffee and tea throughout. The premium version moves lunch to three courses and adds soft drinks, fresh juice, a fruit basket and extra breaks with smoothies, cake, vegetables with dips and muesli.
With 16 bedrooms, the castle suits board-level groups, leadership retreats and small strategy meetings rather than large conferences. Incentives and team-building programs are built around each group, using golf, carriage rides and walks in the landscape park.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings can take place in the castle chapel, outdoors in the park or in the Schinkelsaal, the festive hall of the house. Private salons and halls with restored historic furniture are also used for dinners, family celebrations and banquets, and the team helps with planning and the design of the event. Guests can stay in the castle's rooms and suites for the wedding weekend.
Rooms and capacities
The named event spaces are the Schinkelsaal, the chapel and the landscape park, along with several private salons used for meetings and dinners. The hotel does not publish capacities for these rooms, so group size is agreed with the events team at the start.
Accommodation
The castle has 16 rooms and suites: nine suites and seven double rooms. The largest are the Tower Suite in the tower of the main house and the Grafen-Räume, both about 100 m², followed by the Blaue Suite at 88 m². The double rooms range from 30 to 45 m². Guests have use of a wellness area. Dogs are welcome on a leash, and dog owners dine in the evening in the separate Tisch & Pfote area.
Catering
All catering comes from the castle's own kitchen. The hotel runs the gourmet restaurant Wappensaal, the Café-Brasserie Louise and Tisch & Pfote, and serves meeting lunches, banquets and wedding dinners in-house.
History and setting
Hans Labes, who became Count Hans von Schlitz through adoption and marriage, had the castle built between 1806 and 1823 and also founded the Karolinenkapelle. The estate later changed owners and uses and now belongs to a foundation. The hotel is a member of Schlösser & Gutshäuser, an association of manor houses in the Baltic region.
Getting there
Hohen Demzin is a rural village, so most groups arrive by car or chartered coach. The nearest towns are Teterow and Malchin, and Rostock-Laage is the closest airport.
