Bebenhäuser Pfleghof, Medieval administrative court in Tübingen, Germany

The Bebenhäuser Pfleghof features a three-wing structure with a southwest-facing facade and contains a chapel with late Gothic vaulted ceilings and ornate tracery windows.

Built in 1342 and reconstructed in 1492, this administrative court served as one of four properties owned by Bebenhausen Monastery to manage their economic interests in Tübingen.

The chapel within the complex displays carved keystones depicting the symbols of the four evangelists and contains a notable statue of the Virgin Mary with child.

The building now houses the Institute of Musicology, the University Museum, student residences, a daycare center, and a police station of Tübingen's city center.

The chapel's consecration in 1492 by the Bishop of Konstanz granted visitors a 40-day indulgence, indicating its religious significance beyond a standard house chapel.
