Schloss Hohenaltheim, Baroque château in Hohenaltheim, Germany.

The castle complex includes two prince buildings, a kitchen area, riding hall, orangery, chapel, and garden hall surrounded by formal gardens.

Built in 1710 by Prince Albrecht Ernst II of Oettingen-Oettingen, the construction of this baroque residence required twenty years to complete.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart visited the castle in October 1777 while applying for the position of Kapellmeister at the noble residence.

The castle grounds remain private property of the Oettingen-Wallerstein family, though external views are possible during seasons without foliage.

The estate features rare tree species including trumpet trees, plane trees, and magnolias within its English landscape garden added in 1832.
