Schloss Hexenagger, Medieval castle near Altmannstein, Germany
The castle features a curtain wall with four towers, encompassing a wing-shaped structure with an interior courtyard and a southwestern Romanesque keep.
The Lords of Hexenagger controlled the fortress from 982 until 1480, when ownership transferred to Count Jorg von Helfenstein through marriage.
Two castle chapels from the 17th century demonstrate the religious architecture, with one tower displaying intricate blind arches and an onion dome.
The privately owned castle does not offer public interior visits, but its rooms remain available for event rentals and special occasions.
A historical weapons and hammer forge located along the Schambach river indicates the industrial activities connected to the medieval estate.
