Schloss Höhenrain, Medieval castle in Feldkirchen-Westerham, Germany
Schloss Höhenrain is a medieval castle in the foothills of the Bavarian Alps featuring steep gable roofs and tower structures topped with onion domes. The property includes a restaurant and exhibition space for antique collections.
The castle dates to the medieval period and was held by the Höhenrainer family from 1000 until 1487, when Georg von Höhenrain died as the final heir. Ownership passed through several hands afterward until major restoration efforts took place in the twentieth century.
The knight's hall interior shows 18th-century stucco work that reflects the craftsmanship of its period and shapes how visitors experience the spaces inside.
The castle is accessible as a restaurant and exhibition venue and is best visited during the hours when these businesses are open. It is easily reached by local transport and offers parking for visitors.
A cellist from Munich purchased the estate in 1977 and carried out extensive renovations that secured its future. This private initiative played a key role in restoring and enabling the current use of the property.
