Schloss Haslangkreit, Heritage castle in Kühbach, Germany.
Schloss Haslangkreit is a three-winged water castle in Kühbach featuring a square clock tower topped with an onion dome. The interior contains multiple rooms decorated with ornate stucco ceilings from the 17th century.
The castle evolved from a water fortress first documented in 1285 into a complex shaped by the Haslang family for generations. Its current appearance with ornate stucco ceilings came from renovations during the 17th century.
The Chapel of St. George in the ground floor of the west wing displays baroque furnishings from the 17th century. It reflects the faith and artistic tastes of the family who lived here.
The castle and its surrounding park remain private property and are not open for public visits or guided tours. You can view the exterior from nearby paths and public areas surrounding the grounds.
The interior stucco ceilings are among the last preserved examples of this baroque craftsmanship tradition. They showcase decorative artistry that is rarely practiced today and fill the rooms with intricate details.
