Schloss Scheer, Gothic castle in Scheer, Germany.
Three multi-story buildings with stepped gables connect through a lower cavalier building that houses the castle chapel along the Danube River.
The structure, commissioned by Count Andreas von Sonnenberg between 1485 and 1496, replaced an early medieval count's castle on the same location.
The Knight's Hall, located in the northern building, represents the largest of the three main structures and showcases medieval architectural elements.
The castle remains in private ownership, limiting public access, but visitors can view its exterior architecture from designated areas in Scheer.
The castle grounds include an 18th-century round tower with a tent roof protecting the bailey, connected to an English garden by a bridge.
