Schloss Vischel, Cultural heritage château in Berg, Germany.

Schloss Vischel stands above the Vischelbachtal valley between Berg and Kreuzberg districts, featuring five axes with a central projection facing the courtyard.

The site's origins trace back to a 9th-century water castle, mentioned in the Prümer Urbar property register of 893 under the name Wizssele.

Three distinct family coats of arms decorate the castle facade, representing the de Maistre, Gymnich, and Wolff-Metternich families who influenced its development.

The castle underwent extensive renovations in 1984, transforming former stables and barns while maintaining original facades to accommodate modern functions.

The former water moat surrounding the castle, which has remained dry since the early 1900s, now supports dense plant growth around the structure.
