Schloss Aschbach, Baroque castle in Schlüsselfeld, Germany.

The sandstone castle features two wings and two floors, crowned with a hipped roof and protected by an 18th-century courtyard wall.

Following destruction in the Thirty Years' War, General Hieronymus Christoph von Pölnitz rebuilt the castle between 1677 and 1697 on existing foundations.

The interior received baroque decorations in the early 18th century under Marquard Karl Christoph Freiherr von Pölnitz's direction.

The castle and its 5-hectare park remain private property of the Pölnitz family and are not accessible to public visits.

During World War II, the castle served as a storage facility for museum art pieces and later housed Jewish Polish refugees heading to Israel.
