Although only 150 people live in Krumke, the hamlet has a lot to offer, including one of the most beautiful parks in the Altmark region, a whimsical palace, and a charming café and guest house.

The former moated castle in Krumke underwent many changes before the moat was drained around 1853 and a new castle was built on the former island in the fashionable neo-Gothic style. It then underwent numerous changes, was temporarily a tuberculosis sanatorium after 1945, later a children's health centre and is now privately owned again.

Unlike the castle, the park is open to everyone. It was laid out in the English style at the same time as the castle - with winding paths, a large pond, magnificent rhododendrons and rare tree species such as copper beech, holly and ginkgo. The carp pond was later extended and an alpine garden was created. A special feature of the park is a more than 300-year-old box hedge, one of the oldest of its kind in Europe. The park is now part of the “Saxony-Anhalt Garden Dreams” network (Gartenträume Sachsen-Anhalt).

After a walk in the park, you can enjoy a coffee in the former Kavalierhaus - or stay overnight in one of the guest rooms.
