Talvogtei, Medieval water castle in Kirchzarten, Germany
The Talvogtei consists of a three-wing building with an enclosed courtyard, featuring a square layout surrounded by a protective wall.
First documented in 765 as a court granted to the Abbey of St. Gall, the structure became an administrative center for Freiburg lands by 1497.
The renovated building now functions as the town hall of Kirchzarten, serving as a central location for municipal administration and community gatherings.
The municipal offices inside the Talvogtei are open during regular business hours, providing essential services to residents of Kirchzarten and surrounding areas.
The northern wing, dating to 1400, contains a large hall created by merging three rooms, evident in the ceiling structure patterns.
