Zeidlerschloss

Zeidlerschloss is a manor house with rectangular form and a high hipped roof, positioned near a pond in the countryside around Nuremberg. The building displays characteristics from multiple construction periods across its facades.

The first walls were raised in 1427, while the present outer structure was built in 1556 under Philipp Jakob Tucher's ownership. These renovations reflected the growing importance of the estate as a regional administrative center.

A beekeeper relief adorns the entrance and visually connects the building to the region's earlier forest management traditions. Visitors can still sense how important honey production was to the local economy.

The manor is easily accessible from outside and the surrounding grounds invite a walk around the adjacent pond. The municipality uses the estate for public gatherings throughout the year, creating a lively setting with regular activities.

Two beekeeping estates historically belonged to the property, making it a center for medieval forest management practices. This specialized role set it apart from other manor houses of that era.
