Neu-Ems Castle

CastleListed objects in Austria

Neu-Ems Castle, Medieval castle in Hohenems, Austria.

The castle stands at 666 meters above sea level on a mountainside east of Hohenems, providing views across the Rhine valley region.

Construction of the castle began in 1343 under Ritter Ulrich I von Ems, following approval from Emperor Louis IV the Bavarian.

The castle chapel contained a decorated winged altar, which has been displayed at the Tyrolean State Museum in Innsbruck since 1835.

The Waldburg-Zeil family maintains private ownership of the castle since 1843, restricting general public access to the medieval structure.

During the Appenzell Wars of 1407, the castle experienced destruction but underwent reconstruction, maintaining its position above the valley.
