The Schloss Proschwitz wine estate is the oldest privately run wine estate in Saxony. The construction of the baroque castle can be traced back to the von Schilling family, who acquired the estate in 1704. After a chequered history: confiscation by the NSDAP in 1943; accommodation of children from areas of Germany at risk of bombing; expropriation without compensation after the Second World War; looting and use as a lung sanatorium; conversion into a district rehabilitation centre for mentally handicapped children and adults; in 1990 Georg Prinz zur Lippe bought back piece by piece the parental vineyards and in 1996 the castle and rebuilt both. The vineyard area in 2015 is 98.6 hectares. Prinz zur Lippe also cultivates 46 hectares of vineyards in Schöndorf (Weimar).
Events are held at the winery all year round.

Das Weingut Schloss Proschwitz ist das älteste privat bewirtschaftete Weingut in Sachsen. Der Baubeginn des Barockschlosses ist auf die Familie von Schilling zurückzuführen, die das Anwesen 1704 erwarb. Nach eine wechselvolle Geschichte: Beschlagnahmung durch die NSDAP 1943; Unterbringung von Kindern aus Bombengefährdeten Gebieten Deutschlands; entschädigungslose Enteignung nach dem 2. Weltkrieg; Plünderung und Nutzung als Lungenheilanstalt; Umwandlung in ein Kreisrehabilitationszentrum für geistig behinderte Kinder und Erwachsene; kaufte 1990 Georg Prinz zur Lippe Stück für Stück die elterlichen Weinberge und 1996 das Schloss zurück und baute beide wieder auf. Die Rebfläche beträgt 2015 98,6 Hektar. Prinz zur Lippe bewirtschaftet ferner 46 ha Weinlagen in Schöndorf (Weimar).
Ganzjährig finden im Weingut Veranstaltungen statt.
