Schloss Rathsmannsdorf, Renaissance castle in Rathsmannsdorf, Germany

The castle forms a quadrangular complex with three-story arcaded galleries and a commanding gate tower at its center, situated 300 meters from St. Ulrich Church.

The fortress of the Prince-Bishopric of Passau at the border with the Duchy of Bavaria received its first documented mention around the year 1400.

The Renaissance castle served as the seat of a regional court under Prince-Bishop Urban von Trennbach, who renovated the structure between 1578 and 1579.

The former stables now function as an event venue, while ongoing preservation efforts aim to stabilize the structure after years of deterioration.

The south wing of the castle collapsed after the building was converted into a brewery following its sale by the Bavarian state in 1803.
