Schloss Wahn, Manor house in Wahn district, Cologne, Germany

The three-wing castle complex features late Baroque architecture designed by Johann Georg Leydel, following the style of French maison de plaisance while functioning as a manor.

First documented in 1358 as property of the Revelen family, the original structure consisted of a residential tower, gateway building, moat, and outer bailey.

The Theatre Studies Collection of the University of Cologne, housed in the castle since 1955, contains documentation of European theater from the 16th century to present.

The castle stands at Burgallee 2 in Cologne's Porz-Wahn district, near Cologne-Bonn International Airport with direct connections to highways and railways.

The ground floor historical rooms are exclusively used by the University of Cologne for concerts and academic events, remaining closed to general public access.
