context_page_description: Numerous castles and palaces are found in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt. These buildings, some of which have a history of over 1000 years, were the setting of historical events, domains of famous personalities and are still imposing buildings to this day.
  This list encompasses castles described in German as Burg, Festung, Schloß and Palais/Palast. Many German Schlösser after the middle ages were mainly built as royal or ducal palaces rather than as a fortified building.
