Schloss Massenbach, Historical château in Schwaigern, Germany

Schloss Massenbach is a three-winged, two-storey country house built around 1760 in the Biberbach valley northwest of Massenbach. Its sandstone corner quoins and mansard hipped roof frame a courtyard open to the west, where the central block shows an ornate portal with a gable. The side wings form the court; the northern Wirtschaftshof adjoins the complex.

Built around 1760 by Georg Wilhelm von Massenbach (1721–1788) on the site of an older manor probably destroyed in the 17th century, the Rococo three-winged complex was designed by master builder Johann Peter Moll of Grombach. To distinguish it from the family's other seats in the village, it was once called the Oberes Schloss. Since 1930 it has belonged to the Freiherr von Massenbach'sche Waldstiftung.

The name Massenbach comes from the noble family that built the castle around 1760. Since 2015 the baroque central hall has served as an outpost of the Schwaigern registry office, where civil weddings take place. The hall, north wing and sandstone vaulted cellar host private celebrations and cultural events for up to about 130 people, and an Easter market and Christmas market are held on the grounds.

The grounds are open to visitors at certain times, with guided tours available by arrangement. It is advisable to contact ahead of time to confirm opening hours and any access limitations.

The castle was long called Oberes Schloss to distinguish it from the Unteres Schloss (built 1691) and the Katholisches Schloss, the other Massenbach family seats in the village. Both of those were placed under monument protection in 1926/27 but demolished in 1993/94 because they had become dilapidated.
