Schloss Wörth an der Donau, Renaissance castle in Wörth an der Donau, Germany
The rectangular castle features defensive walls, a two-story main gate from 1525, and a fortified entrance building constructed in 1605.
Initially constructed as a fortress in 914, the castle became a summer residence for the Prince-Bishops of Regensburg after its Renaissance renovation in 1522.
The Castle Church of St. Martin from 1616 contains multiple altars with artworks by regional artist Jakob Heybel and Italian painter Jacopo Tornini.
The castle currently functions as a senior living facility operated by pro seniore, continuing its long tradition of serving community needs.
Two distinct wells remain inside the castle: a fountain from 1636 and a draw well dating back to 1450.
