Schloss Schambach, Medieval château in Straßkirchen, Germany
The château stands between Plattling and Straubing, featuring two hexagonal towers in the west and a spiral staircase tower at the main entrance.
Built around 1200, the water castle underwent major renovations in 1550 when the Trenbach family transformed it into a two-wing structure lasting until the Thirty Years' War.
The castle's architecture combines Gothic elements with early Renaissance features, including arcades added during later modifications of the original medieval structure.
Located at coordinates 48.8522°N and 12.6866°E, the castle maintains its protected status as an architectural heritage monument under Bavarian preservation laws.
The foundation rests on oak posts surrounded by a water moat, which was originally larger and included a drawbridge for protection against intruders.
