Blaues Schloss zu Obernzenn, Late Baroque castle in Obernzenn, Germany

The Blue Castle features three wings constructed around a courtyard, with blue-tinted facades that contrast with its neighboring Red Castle.

The construction occurred in three phases between 1696 and 1758, initiated by the Seckendorff-Aberdar family on the foundations of a medieval moated fortress.

The Picture Hall displays an extensive collection of family portraits from the 17th and 18th centuries embedded directly into the walls.

Guided tours take place on the first and third Sundays from May to October at 2 PM, with group visits available by phone reservation.

The castle's grand staircase features distinctive blue coloring, which contributed to the building's name and sets it apart from other Bavarian castles.
