Schloss Fürstenau, Renaissance castle in Steinbach, Michelstadt, Germany.

The castle features four round corner towers, a trapezoidal floor plan, and stands near the Mümling River in the Odenwald region.

Built in the 14th century by Kurmainz to protect Steinbach Monastery, the castle underwent Renaissance-style modifications between 1548 and 1605.

The castle houses art collections by regional artists and marks the starting point of the Cultural History Trail through the surrounding landscapes.

Visitors can access the castle courtyard and gardens daily from 10:00 to 16:00, with parking facilities located near the entrance.

The Renaissance mill building, formerly used for coin minting, now functions as a hydroelectric power station on the Mümling River.
