Kurmainzisches Schloss

Kurmainzisches Schloss, Medieval castle in Tauberbischofsheim, Germany

The Kurmainzisches Schloss is a fortified complex in the center of Tauberbischofsheim with several buildings arranged around an inner courtyard. A tall defensive tower called the Türmersturm rises above the structures, while brick and stone walls define the castle's appearance.

The castle began as a city defense structure in the 13th century to protect Tauberbischofsheim. Later renovation in the 16th century transformed it into a residence for archbishop officials.

The castle now hosts a museum dedicated to the history and traditions of the Tauberfranken region. Visitors can see regional artwork and historical objects from everyday life scattered throughout the rooms.

The castle is easy to reach on foot and sits in the middle of the old town where shops and cafes are nearby. Visitors should plan to spend time both inside the museum and walking around the courtyard.

The castle has a hidden entrance located several meters above ground level, accessible only by stairs. The moat that once surrounded the fortification was eventually filled in and became the public square that visitors see today.
