Schloss Schlachtegg, Castle in Gundelfingen an der Donau, Germany.

Schloss Schlachtegg consists of two wings across two floors, surrounded by a small park and castle walls near the Brenz river.

The castle, first recorded in 1270 as St. Michael's Chapel, later became a Katherine monastery before transforming into a Swabian residence between 1553 and 1560.

The castle contains Gothic wall paintings discovered during renovations in 1999, indicating the integration of the former St. Michael cemetery chapel into the east-west wing.

Following years of abandonment in the 1950s, the castle underwent restoration in 1992 to become a creative center for the German Florists Association.

The name Schlachtegg derives from Schlacht meaning water weir and Egg referring to a castle, reflecting its connection to the nearby Brenz water system.
