Schloss Heiligenberg, Renaissance castle in Heiligenberg, Germany.

The castle stands on a plateau at 730 meters above sea level, with views extending to Lake Constance and the Alps.

Count Berthold of Heiligenberg constructed the initial fortress in 1250, which later became part of the Fürstenberg family through marriage in 1535.

The Knights Hall, created between 1580 and 1584, features a coffered ceiling by Jörg Schwartzenberger and represents late German Renaissance architecture.

The castle remains a private residence of the Fürstenberg family and does not allow public access to its interior spaces.

The castle chapel contains stained glass windows from the 14th century, transferred from the Dominican church in Konstanz.
