Schloss Neuenstadt am Kocher

The castle exhibits Renaissance design elements with a symmetrical layout, decorative stonework, and multiple wings surrounding a central courtyard.

Built between 1559 and 1565, the castle replaced an earlier fortification and served as residence for the Württemberg-Neuenstadt noble line.

The castle moat transforms into an outdoor theater venue during summer, presenting classical music performances and regional shows for 20,000 attendees.

Located near the A81 Autobahn, visitors can access the castle through guided tours, though interior spaces remain restricted for wheelchair users.

The castle contains a crypt that functions as the burial site for dukes, preserving centuries of regional nobility history.
