Schloss Buchenau, Renaissance château in Eiterfeld, Germany.

Schloss Buchenau is a Renaissance castle in Eiterfeld featuring architectural elements in the Weser Renaissance style from the 17th century. The complex consists of several buildings arranged around the main structure, creating a spacious overall impression.

Georg Melchior von Buchenau and Agnes von Schwalbach had the main castle built between 1611 and 1618. The building combines regional architectural traditions and shaped the family's history across generations.

The castle is also called Schenckschloss after Wolf Christoph Schenk zu Schweinsberg, who moved in in 1694 after exchanging it for his Burghaun estate. In 1713 he had the Renterei renovated, and it has been called the Generalshaus since. The park includes a sports field.

The complex is used as a conference and group house with 125 beds and several meeting rooms; the seminar house alone holds four. The grounds lie between Fulda and Bad Hersfeld and include a park with a sports field. The heating house and the Schloss hall were both built in 2010.

The castle is also called Schenckschloss after Wolf Christoph Schenk zu Schweinsberg, who moved in in 1694. In 1904 a tower modelled on the one at the Wartburg was added to the Generalshaus, the oldest building on the grounds, built in 1550.
