Schloss Mergenthau, Country house and castle in Kissing, Germany.

Schloss Mergenthau stands one kilometer north of Kissing, featuring baroque architecture within the walls of a medieval fortress on Lechrain.

The castle, documented as 'castro nostro Mergatowe' in 1249, belonged to the bishops of Augsburg and endured multiple destructions during feuds.

Hans Georg Mozart, a relative of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, designed the 1715 construction that includes a chapel with stucco work by Matthias Lotter.

The estate continues to operate as an agricultural property and hosts regular events, including markets and educational activities for visitors.

The castle grounds contain the Wichtelenloch, a network of underground tunnels that indicates ancient ritual activities in the area.
