Schloss Inkofen, Protected château in Haag an der Amper, Germany
Schloss Inkofen is a three-story castle with a distinctive hipped roof sitting on the steep banks of the Amper River in Upper Bavaria. The complex is surrounded by a sixteenth-century brick fortification wall, a moat, and a bridge with brick parapets.
The castle served as a permanent seat of power from 1395 to 1447, before authority shifted to the nearby town of Moosburg an der Isar. Over centuries, it changed hands among different families before ultimately becoming the property of the Counts of La Rosée.
The chapel within holds the tomb of a Bavarian military officer, reflecting the noble heritage of the place. Visitors can sense this aristocratic connection directly.
The castle sits on elevated terrain with steep riverbanks, so visitors should wear sturdy footwear and be prepared for uneven ground. Access to the grounds requires care due to proximity to the river and the age of the structures.
Over centuries, the castle was home to several wealthy families including the Pullinger and Magensrether before arriving at its current ownership. These changes in ownership shaped the structure and made it a mirror of local power shifts through time.
