Schloss Bodman, 18th century château in Bodman-Ludwigshafen, Germany.
Schloss Bodman is an 18th-century castle near Lake Constance that displays classical German architecture with balanced facades and an impressive main entrance. The structure underwent significant modifications and growth throughout the 19th century to reach its present form.
Construction of the castle began in 1757, replacing an earlier fortification on the site. The subsequent expansions between 1831 and 1909 gave the building its current appearance.
The castle remains home to the von Bodman family, whose deep roots in the region shape the local character of the area. This continuity of residence connects the building to the community across centuries.
The interior of the castle is not open to the public as it remains a private residence. Visitors can freely view the exterior architecture and stroll through the surrounding English-style gardens.
The castle incorporates design elements from the Weinbrenner style, a regional architectural approach that became prominent in Baden. This distinctive feature reflects connections to southwestern German building traditions.
