Schloss Haltenbergstetten, Cultural heritage château in Niederstetten, Germany.

Schloss Haltenbergstetten is a castle with four wings arranged around an inner courtyard and a round tower at its northwest corner. The structure spans three stories and houses natural history collections and hunting exhibits in its east and south wings.

The Hohenlohe family built a castle at Haltenbergstetten around 1200; in the 16th century it was rebuilt as a palace. Ownership passed through the lords of Hohenlohe, the counts of Castell, the Schenken von Limpurg, the lords of Rosenberg and the counts of Hatzfeld (1641–1794), then to the Hochstift Würzburg and from 1803 to the princes of Hohenlohe-Jagstberg, who still own it.

The chapel of Maria Immaculata, built into the south part of the east wing, served as the Catholic parish church of Niederstetten until 1966, when the new parish church of St. Johannes Evangelist was built. Its Rococo furnishings include a princely box (Fürstenloge). The castle church, the castle and the hunting museum can be visited on request.

The castle, its chapel and the hunting museum in the east and south wings can be visited on request, so arrange a tour in advance rather than arriving unannounced. The natural history museum that once occupied part of the building is now closed. The complex stands at about 350 m above sea level on the lower spur of the Lämmerberg, above the Vorbach valley.

Until 1807 the town of Niederstetten itself was called Haltenbergstetten, taking its name from the castle; the castle chapel Maria Immaculata served as Niederstetten's Catholic parish church until 1966, when the new St. Johannes Evangelist church was built.
