Schloss Weinheim, Medieval castle in Weinheim, Germany
The castle complex includes multiple wings constructed in different architectural styles, from medieval fortifications to Renaissance and neo-Gothic elements.
The Electoral Palatinate princes purchased adjacent properties in Weinheim between 1403 and 1423, establishing the foundation for the current castle structure.
The northwestern wing, built in 1537, became a residence for Prince-Elector Ottheinrich who sought refuge from the plague in Heidelberg during 1547.
Since 1938, Schloss Weinheim functions as the administrative center of Weinheim, housing municipal offices and offering guided tours through its historical sections.
The castle features a neo-Gothic tower from 1868, added by Baron Christian Friedrich Gustav von Berckheim after removing the original cellar wing.
