Palace
In the oldest part of Lübbenau stands the neo-classical Schloss, built between 1817 and 1839 on the site of an earlier moated castle. Much altered, it is now a training center. The Orangery (1820) now houses a museum.

The oldest building in the town is a two-story half-timbered building at the entrance to the Schloss.
