Schloss Presteneck, Renaissance water castle in Stein am Kocher, Germany.
The three-winged Renaissance castle features a round tower at its northeastern corner and stands protected by high walls with a main portal.
The von Gemmingen family acquired Presteneck Castle in 1549, with Hans Walther initiating the construction of the water castle in 1580.
The grand entrance gate displays a coat of arms belonging to the von Gemmingen family, marking their status as lords of the Bürg district.
Between 1976 and 1981, the castle underwent complete renovation and now contains private apartments, making interior visits not possible.
The oldest structure within the castle complex is a barn dating from 1579, while the gatehouse bears inscriptions from 1582 and 1583.
