Schloss Wackerstein
Schloss Wackerstein, Castle in Pförring, Germany.
Schloss Wackerstein stands on a steep cliff above the Danube River, featuring a two-wing structure with a small tower on the eastern wing.
The first documented mention of the castle dates to 1264 with Berthold von Wackerstein, followed by multiple ownership changes through noble families.
The medieval castle chapel, dedicated to Our Lady, underwent modifications in 1781 and represents the religious architectural elements of Bavarian nobility.
The castle underwent renovations in 1989, transforming the historical structure into residential apartments while maintaining its architectural heritage status.
During the Austrian Succession War in 1745, Austrian forces seized control of the castle, marking a significant military occupation in its history.
