Jagdschloß Eulbach

Jagdschloß Eulbach is a manor house in Würzberg situated in a hilly region of the Odenwald and surrounded by forest. The building combines single-story original structures with timber-framed additions made later and displays a mix of different architectural styles.

The castle was built in 1771 as a single-story hunting house by Count Franz I of Erbach-Erbach. Around 1800 it received a timber-framed extension and served as a summer residence for the family thereafter.

The castle displays architectural features from different periods that were added over time. Visitors can see how the original hunting lodge character evolved through timber framing and Gothic elements into a larger manor house.

The property is surrounded by forest and parkland and requires private transport to reach from nearby villages. Visitors should expect longer walks and some elevation changes as the castle sits in a higher location.

In the 18th century the grounds included a vast wildlife park that enabled the family's hunting pursuits. Today this park has shrunk considerably, but some of the original forest areas still shape the landscape around the castle.
