Burg Oberstaad, Medieval castle in Öhningen, Germany
The rectangular residential tower of Burg Oberstaad features a gable roof and stands above the shores of Lake Constance on the Höri peninsula point.
Built around 1200 by the Lords of Hohenklingen, the castle remained under Albrecht von Klingenberg's ownership until 1446, experiencing numerous architectural modifications through centuries.
The castle's architectural elements combine late-Romanesque and early-Gothic styles, with two oversized stories replacing the original floor division of the residential tower.
The Institute for the History and Future of Work currently operates within the castle, utilizing its spaces for offices and seminar rooms.
A fire in 1886 led to the transformation of the castle into a knitwear factory during the late 19th century before its restoration in the 1970s.
