Schloss-Eybach, Renaissance château in Geislingen an der Steige, Germany

The château features a main two-story building with mansard roof, complemented by an eastern wing and two preserved gate houses from 1540.

Between 1766 and 1772, Count August Christoph von Degenfeld commissioned the construction of the current main building, replacing a previous Renaissance structure.

The architecture represents the transitional period from Rococo to Classicism, displaying characteristics of the German Zopfstil movement in its design elements.

The castle grounds include a south-facing garden, which has been reduced in size due to road construction, and two agricultural buildings frame the courtyard.

The property remains under ownership of the Degenfeld-Schonburg family since 1456, when the monastery of Ellwangen transferred the estate to their possession.
