Schloss Grafeneck, Memorial castle in Gomadingen, Germany

The Renaissance castle stands near the Marbach State Stud Farm, approximately 25 kilometers southeast of Tübingen between Engstingen and Münsingen.

During 1940, the National Socialist regime transformed the castle into a killing center where over 10,600 individuals lost their lives through the T4 program.

The memorial site includes an open chapel designed by Professor Weinbrenner, featuring artistic elements that represent the historical events of the location.

The documentation center opens daily from 8 AM to 8 PM, offering exhibitions and educational programs about the site's historical significance.

The castle now functions as both a memorial site and a social care facility, providing support services for people with disabilities and psychological conditions.
