Schloss Kirchheim, Renaissance château in Kirchheim unter Teck, Germany
The castle exhibits a diamond-shaped structure with four wings encircled by a moat, featuring residential suites and summer dining halls within its walls.
Construction began in 1538 under Duke Ulrich of Württemberg as part of defensive fortifications, incorporating deep moats, bastions, ramparts, and artillery casemates.
The municipal history museum operates in the chapel section, presenting exhibits about regional heritage and the former inhabitants of this noble residence.
The heritage agency Staatliche Schlösser und Gärten Baden-Württemberg maintains the palace and organizes guided tours through the historical chambers and gardens.
Duchess Maria Dorothea Sophia von Oettingen negotiated protection for the castle against French forces during the Nine Years' War in the late 17th century.
