Burgellern Castle, Heritage castle in Scheßlitz, Germany.
The castle features distinctive baroque architecture with an administrative building, carriage house, and extensive surrounding park grounds spanning several hectares.
Constructed between 1726 and 1758 under Marquard Wilhelm Graf von Schönborn, the castle served as a summer residence for the cathedral chapter of Bamberg.
The Buseck brothers introduced Oriental decorations and wall paintings in 1839, reflecting their travels and creating a fusion of European and Eastern artistic elements.
The castle now operates as a hotel and restaurant, offering accommodations and dining services following its renovation and reopening in 2008.
King Maximilian II visited the castle in 1853, and his son, future King Ludwig II, spent time playing in the castle gardens during his childhood.
