Schloss Cronheim, Château in Cronheim, Germany
The water castle features four wings with round towers at exterior corners, creating a symmetrical structure with precise north-south and east-west orientation.
The original fortress from the 12th century was destroyed in 1403 by Burgrave Johann III of Nuremberg, leading to reconstruction as a two-wing complex in 1564.
The castle houses the Museum Mikrokosmos Cronheim, which documents the historical coexistence of Catholic, Protestant, and Jewish communities in the region.
The castle, located at coordinates 49°5'47.306"N, 10°39'48.866"E, operates as a therapy center managed by AWO Kreisverband Roth-Schwabach organization.
The southern tower, dating from the 15th century, bears the name Hungerturm and represents one of the oldest remaining parts of the structure.
