Alzey Castle, Medieval castle in Alzey, Germany.
The castle features a rectangular layout with multiple structures, including towers and courtyards, displaying architectural elements from different historical periods.
Originally constructed in the 13th century as a nucleus of the Rhenish Palsgraviate, the castle served as a residence for Palsgraves Ruprecht II and III.
The castle stands as a testament to medieval German administration, where numerous royal documents were issued during King Ruprecht's reign from 1400 to 1410.
The castle grounds remain accessible throughout the year, while interior tours are conducted only once or twice annually through scheduled guided visits.
Following extensive damage during the Palatine War of Succession, the castle underwent reconstruction in the early 20th century and now functions as a district courthouse.
