Schloss Haselbach, Medieval castle and archaeological site in Tiefenbach, Germany.
Schloss Haselbach is a four-winged castle surrounding a central courtyard with arcaded galleries running along its inner sides. A distinctive round tower stands at the northwest corner, built from rubble stone and topped with a distinctive conical roof.
The castle experienced severe destruction during the Thirty Years' War when Swedish forces attacked in 1633. The building was reconstructed in the 1720s, restoring its structure to a largely new form.
The property transformed from a noble residence to a brewery in 1818, marking a shift from aristocratic to commercial use in Bavaria.
The grounds are accessible to visitors who wish to examine the exterior and courtyard layout of the site. Walking around the perimeter gives a good sense of the building's scale and the relationship between its different sections.
The entrance features an ornate risalit crowned with curved gables that display architectural elements from different construction eras. This mixing of styles provides visible evidence of the building's complex reconstruction process across multiple centuries.
