Oberes Schloss, Gothic castle in Arnstorf, Germany.

The four-wing castle structure surrounds a rectangular courtyard and features water-filled ditches on three sides of the building complex.

The Reichsfreiherren von Closen transformed the original water fortress from the 15th century into a representative noble residence during the 16th century.

The castle chapel of St. Katharina, located in the northeast wing, contains ceiling frescoes created by Melchior Steidl in 1715.

Tours inside the castle require advance reservations, while the economic courtyard and sections of the surrounding park remain accessible to the public.

A private theater was installed within one of the ceremonial rooms during the 19th century, adding an entertainment venue to the castle.
