Schloss Dörnberg, Stately home in Neustadt, Germany
Schloss Dörnberg stands on stone foundations of a medieval water castle, featuring a prominent round tower with half-timbered construction measuring 48 meters in height.
The castle underwent transformation from 1477 to 1489 under Hans von Dörnberg, following plans by court architect Hans Jakob von Ettlingen on the site of an earlier fortress.
The building reflects the architectural evolution from medieval fortress to administrative center, serving as a residence, courthouse, and currently functions as the town hall.
The structure maintains its position in the southern part of Neustadt's old town, near the Catholic parish church of St. Trinitatis and the historical marketplace.
The Junker-Hansen Tower, integrated into the castle complex, stands as the largest round half-timbered building documented in Germany with its 12-meter diameter.
