Stettenfels Castle, Medieval castle in Untergruppenbach, Germany
The stone castle stands on an elevated position above Untergruppenbach, featuring Renaissance architecture with defensive walls and a central courtyard.
Built in the 11th century, the castle changed ownership multiple times, including the Fugger family who transformed it into a Renaissance palace in 1575.
The castle maintains an active cultural program throughout the year, presenting theater performances, concerts, and special exhibitions in its historical halls.
Visitors can access the castle grounds daily, with guided tours available on weekends and a restaurant serving regional specialties in the courtyard.
The castle grounds include a working stud farm that continues the equestrian tradition established by Siegfried Levi in 1925.
