Burg Hohenhardt

Burg Hohenhardt, Tower hill castle in Wiesloch, Germany

Burg Hohenhardt, now called Hohenhardter Hof, is a tower hill castle (Motte) between the Baiertal and Schatthausen districts of Wiesloch. Its stone residential tower dates from around 1240, with early Gothic windows, embrasures and masonry; the foundations and a re-used Romanesque door lintel survive from an earlier building phase. The associated manor house and farm buildings were later restored as a private estate.

The fortress served as the seat of the Hohenhardt noble family starting in the 12th century, documenting their presence in the region for over two centuries. After the family line ended in the 13th century, the property changed hands and underwent several alterations.

The site takes its name from the noble family that shaped the area for centuries through their residence here. The buildings still bear traces of their past, even though the purpose of the place has fundamentally changed.

Burg Hohenhardt lies between the Baiertal and Schatthausen districts of Wiesloch. Since 1985 the Wiesloch Golf Club has used the whole estate for play, so the grounds are not freely walkable; arrange any visit with the club beforehand. The manor house was restored in keeping with its listed status after 1957.

The Wiesloch sanatorium and care home was among the tenants in the early 20th century, growing food and animal feed on the estate's fields. The site has belonged to private owners since 1957, and since 1985 the Wiesloch Golf Club has used the whole farmstead for play.
