Schloss Riede, Renaissance château in Bad Emstal, Germany
The three-story stone structure stands on a high natural stone base, featuring a Renaissance portal and a round staircase tower on the eastern side.
The château, constructed in 1563 by the Meysenbug knight family, incorporated materials from previous medieval buildings in its foundation and structure.
The interior preserves a cast iron oven with plates designed by Philipp Soldan in 1564, representing Renaissance craftsmanship of northern Hesse.
The château serves as a civil registry office and exhibition space, with visitors requiring advance arrangements to explore the internal sections.
An English park surrounds the château, containing a 1563 baptismal font and two neoclassical memorial stones from approximately 1800.
