The castle was widely rebuilt in late gothique style in the 15th Century, defenses were strenghtened, a pentagonal renaissance palace added in the 16th Century. It was badly damaged and sacked by Swedes in 1635, after that was just partially maintained, and a large fire in 1718 finished it´s change into a romantic ruin.
