Schloss Unterschüpf, Renaissance water castle in Boxberg, Germany
The castle features a two-story square structure with three round corner towers, columned arcades, and a central courtyard with a staircase tower.
Construction of the castle began in 1610 on the site of an earlier structure from 1561, serving as a residence for the Lords of Rosenberg.
The building represents a fine example of Renaissance architecture, incorporating both residential and defensive elements with its embrasures and Rustika portal.
Since the 1980s, the castle operates as an educational center for children with speech impairments, managed by the city of Boxberg.
The water moats that once surrounded the castle were filled in during 1830, yet the exterior remains largely unaltered since its original construction.
