Steinhöfel is a municipality in the Oder-Spree district, in Brandenburg, Germany. In 1774, the Prussian Minister of War and Treasury〔more precisely, President of the General War and Finance Directory of Prussia - hence effectively Minister of War and Finance〕 Joachim von Blumenthal purchased the estate of Steinhöfel, including a manor that was later expanded into a castle. When von Blumenthal died, the estate was inherited by his daughter Charlotte von Massow, whose husband the Court Marshal Valentin von Massow commissioned a rebuilding of the manor by the architect David Gilly. The property was inherited in turn by the couple's son Valentin von Massow who had served with Wellington in Spain and as one of his adjutants at Waterloo. During the Seven Years' War, the castle's surroundings saw a brief visit by Frederick the Great resting his troops prior to the Battle of Kunersdorf. Later recreational visitors included Frederick William III of Prussia and Theodor Fontane who expressed considerable enthusiasm about the place. The castle ''(de:Schloß Steinhöfel'') today hosts a hotel and commercial venue under Cultural heritage regulations. The contemporary municipality of Steinhöfel comprises a total of twelve physical villages including Steinhöfel, Demnitz and Neuendorf im Sande.〔(municipal information on parts of Steinhöfel on the Web ), 02 Aug 2013〕 image:Steinhoefel Schloss und Landschaftspark 01.jpg|The castle as seen from the park side image:Steinhoefel Schloss und Landschaftspark 03.jpg|landscaped garden image:Demnitz Dorfkirche.jpg|Demnitz (Steinhöfel), Village Lutheran Church image:Neuendorf (Steinhoefel) Dorfkirche.jpg|Neuendorf im Sande (Steinhöfel), village church == Demography == File:Bevölkerungsentwicklung Steinhöfel.pdf|Development of Population since 1875 within the Current Boundaries (Blue Line: Population; Dotted Line: Comparison to Population Development of Brandenburg state; Grey Background: Time of Nazi rule; Red Background: Time of Communist rule) File:Bevölkerungsprognosen Steinhöfel.pdf|Recent Population Development (Blue Line) and Forecasts 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Steinhöfel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
