Schloss Krauchenwies, Neoclassical château in Krauchenwies, Germany
The three-winged château stands at the southeast corner of the Hohenzollern Princely Park, along the federal road B311 from Krauchenwies to Sigmaringen.
First mentioned in 1303 as a tower of the Leiterberg family, the castle underwent transformations until its current neoclassical form was completed between 1769 and 1785.
The property served as a summer residence for the Counts and Princes of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, reflecting the noble lifestyle of Baden-Württemberg's aristocracy.
The castle complex spans 4,000 to 5,000 square meters with approximately 1,000 square meters of usable floor space across multiple levels.
Between 1954 and 1979, the castle operated as Malteser Children's Home, providing shelter for refugee children and war orphans after World War II.
