Schloss Strauweiler, Medieval château in Odenthal, Germany.
The château features a four-story residential wing with corner turrets and a steep hipped roof situated above the Dhünn River.
The castle was first mentioned in 1347, although Heinrich von Udindara likely established his residence there in the 12th century.
The chapel located in the gatehouse continues to hold religious services, despite its temporary use as a garage during certain periods.
The château remains a private residence owned by the Sayn-Wittgenstein family and does not permit public access to its interior.
One of the corner turrets served as the Odenthal prison for several centuries, marking the castle's role in local jurisdiction.
