Schloss Aubach, Baroque castle in Lauf, Germany.
Schloss Aubach is a Baroque castle in Lauf, Baden-Württemberg, featuring a two-story structure with a distinctive mansard roof and plaster facade. The building stands east of the Erlenbad-Lauf road and displays the architectural style of its construction period.
The castle was built in the early 18th century as a Baroque country house and later received a neo-Gothic extension. Subsequent renovations in the 20th century removed the added wing and restored the structure.
The castle served as a private residence for various owners before becoming municipal property, and it remains a notable landmark in the local community. The building reflects the social history of the region through its changing hands over centuries.
The castle is situated east of the main Erlenbad-Lauf road and can be easily reached by car or on foot from the town center. It is now publicly owned, so the exterior can be viewed from the surrounding area.
The castle was acquired by the municipality of Lauf from a private owner in the mid-20th century, transitioning from family property to public ownership. This acquisition helped preserve the building as an important local landmark for generations to come.
