Greckenschloss, Renaissance château in Bad Friedrichshall, Germany
Greckenschloss is a Renaissance castle in Bad Friedrichshall positioned on elevated ground with two courtyards extending westward. The two-wing structure is separated from the neighboring Lindenberg by a moat that marks the property boundary.
Wolf Conrad von Greck II built the castle between 1599 and 1602 as a noble residence. The structure suffered damage during the Thirty Years War but was restored in 1681 to repair the war injuries.
The castle now houses educational institutions including a primary school, music school, and painting school that moved in after major renovations. These programs have brought the spaces back into active use by students and visitors.
The castle sits on elevated ground, so comfortable walking shoes are recommended when exploring the grounds. Access varies depending on school activities on site, so it helps to check ahead about which areas are open to visitors.
Before becoming an educational institution, the property served commercial purposes including a cigar factory and spirits production. Traces of this industrial past remain visible in certain sections of the building.
