Schloss Hirschberg, Medieval castle in Beilngries, Germany.

The castle features two Romanesque towers that flank the central gatehouse, positioned high above the Altmühl Valley with views of the surrounding landscape.

First documented in 1180, the castle became the property of Eichstätt bishops in 1305 and underwent transformation into a hunting lodge between 1760 and 1764.

The imperial hall and knight's hall display extensive Rococo stucco work and paintings that reflect German aristocratic tastes of the 18th century.

Located at Hirschberg 70 in Beilngries, the castle functions as a conference center for the Diocese of Eichstätt and accepts visitors by appointment.

The castle maintains its dual role as both a Catholic Church institution and a meeting place for interdisciplinary dialogue and professional gatherings.
