Schloss Zellerreit, Heritage castle in Ramerberg, Germany.

Schloss Zellerreit is a three-story building with a pitched roof and stepped gables, built in the second half of the 16th century. Its complex includes the late-Gothic chapel of St. George, which has a Baroque interior, a saddle roof, a western roof turret, and a pointed gable. The 19th-century brick gatehouse has a triangular pediment and crenellations.

The site of a castle at Zellerreit dates back to the Hofmark of the 14th century, but the present building was erected in the second half of the 16th century. Before the 17th century it belonged to the Edlen von Zeller; in 1606 the Freiherren von Kern acquired it from the Dellinger family. In the first third of the 19th century Joseph Anton von Mussinan bought it from the Kerns and made the estate cultivable, clearing woodland and laying out orchards, vegetable gardens and a tree nursery on the hillside. The last conversion took place in the 19th century.

The castle chapel of St. George is a late Gothic building with a pitched roof, a western roof turret and a pointed gable; its interior was furnished in Baroque style. The altar is dedicated to Saints George and Anthony. The chapel is recorded together with the castle as a protected monument, including buried medieval and early modern remains.

The castle sits in a rural agricultural setting and is visible from the outside, though visitors should watch for local access roads. Planning your route in advance is wise since the location is not directly on major highways.

The Bavarian National Museum holds a painted table top from the castle that merges early topographical views of Bavaria with scenes of bathing, hunting, and games. This piece of furniture reveals how the landscape and daily life appeared through the eyes of those who lived there.
