Schloss Zweibrüggen, Water castle in Übach-Palenberg, Germany

Schloss Zweibrüggen stands between Palenberg and Frelenberg districts in the Wurmtal valley, featuring a classicist building with medieval foundations and a water moat.

Built in 1341, the castle changed ownership through noble families including von der Hagen, von Mirbach, von Voß, and von Eys until Joseph von Negri constructed a new building in 1788.

The castle functions as a cultural center for Übach-Palenberg, hosting art exhibitions, concerts, receptions, and small trade fairs throughout the year.

The castle houses the city registry office and provides rental spaces for businesses and artist studios, making it an administrative and commercial center.

The architectural design follows mathematical proportions between building elements, reflecting the influence of Viennese architecture through Joseph Anton von Negri's connection to Empress Maria Theresa.
