Schloss Blumenfeld

The five-sided castle sits on a 40-meter limestone plateau overlooking the Bibertal valley, featuring two connected T-shaped buildings with a spiral staircase.

Built around 1300 and reconstructed after destruction in 1499, the castle served as an administrative center under the Teutonic Order until the early 19th century.

The interior displays Renaissance elements including two fireplaces with figurative designs and period decorative paintings that reflect architectural styles of the region.

The castle operates as a cultural venue with co-working spaces, accommodations, and a café open every second Sunday from 14:00 to 17:00.

The structure successfully defended itself during the cities' war of 1441, demonstrating the effectiveness of its military architecture.
