Neues Schloss Kißlegg, Château in Kißlegg, Germany

Neues Schloss Kißlegg is a three-story building with two side risalits facing north, a saddle roof on the main block and hipped roofs on the risalits, each with a curved gable dormer. Plaster quoins articulate the corners and floor divisions, and two figures stand in a wall niche above the pilastered portal. Inside, the staircase has eight Sibyl figures by Joseph Anton Feuchtmayer.

A building stood on the site by 1523; it burned in 1704, and Johann Georg Fischer of Füssen began the present palace in 1721 for Johann Ernst II von Waldburg-Trauchburg, completing it in 1727 using stone from the ruined Alt-Trauchburg. The counts, later princes, of Waldburg-Zeil owned it until 1941; the municipality bought it in 1960.

The staircase holds eight Sibyl figures by Joseph Anton Feuchtmayer, made for the 1721–1727 rebuild. Since 1993 the second floor has housed a museum: first the Museum expressiver Realismus until 2004, then the Museum Rudolf Wachter from 2005 to 2018, now changing art exhibitions. The ground floor holds the rooms of the Narrenzunft "Kißlegger Hudelmale" and the local history museum.

Guided tours operate on Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays at 3 PM from March through October to explore the Baroque interiors. Visitors should check ahead since special events such as weddings may affect regular visits.

The Rudolf Wachter Museum occupied the second floor from 2005 to 2018, after the Museum of Expressive Realism closed in 2004; since then the rooms have hosted changing art exhibitions. The ground floor holds the Heimatmuseum and the rooms of the Kißlegger Hudelmale fools' guild.
