Oberes Schloss

Oberes Schloss is a four-sided castle structure in Immendingen with rounded towers at three corners and a central courtyard. The complex measures roughly 33 by 27 meters and currently houses the town hall.

The castle dates from the 12th century and was owned by the Lords of Almenshofen from 1409 to 1531 before passing to other noble families. In the 19th century it became a production site for wheels and mills, until the city renovated it as town hall in the 1960s.

The site once functioned as a production center for mechanical parts and shows how Immendingen shifted from craftsmanship to industry. Walking through the rooms today, you can sense how this place transformed from a noble stronghold into an economic hub.

The building is located in the old town and clearly visible from outside, though regular access is limited since it serves as the municipal administration center. Visitors can best experience the surroundings during special events or by inquiring locally about viewing times.

The castle festival takes place every two years during the first September weekend, bringing local associations and community groups to the grounds. This tradition shows how the former noble residence now serves as a gathering place for the entire town.
