Schloss Moosen, Monastery and architectural monument in Dorfen, Germany.

Schloss Moosen is a four-story cubic building with a hipped roof and a tall baroque chimney, built around 1620 in a transition from Mannerism to early Baroque. Its chapel, attached directly to the south wall, has served as the St. Katharina filial church since the 19th century. The chapel interior features a flat dome and early Classicist furnishings.

The estate was first documented in 1212 under Hartlieb von Moosen and subsequently changed hands among noble families. In 1865, Poor School Sisters took over the complex to operate a children's home.

The chapel in the southern wing displays late baroque furnishings including an ornate high altar and a silver shrine for sacred relics. Visitors can sense the religious importance of the place through the design and decoration of these spaces.

The castle stands empty today and is not open to the public following the departure of its former occupants. The exterior can be viewed from surrounding grounds, though visitors should respect private property boundaries.

The most valuable piece in the chapel is a silver shrine showing Jesus Mocked, brought in 1788 by Count Theodor Topor-Morawitzky from his Amberg castle together with his mother's wedding ring. Votive pictures under the gallery record appeals for help addressed to it.
