Loblocher Schlössel, Historical building in Neustadt an der Weinstraße, Germany
The Loblocher Schlössel at Kurpfalzstraße 76 in Gimmeldingen is a late Gründerzeit group whose core is a one-and-a-half-storey villa with a Baroque nucleus and a belvedere tower. A squat square tower with a rounded slate roof grows from the side of the main building, which also carries a large roof turret. Earlier farm buildings belong to the ensemble, and the barn arch is inscribed around 1599.
The building came into being around 1890 through the renovation of a baroque structure and incorporated architectural elements of a small castle with a barn arch dating from 1599. This combination shows how older agricultural structures were integrated into later representative buildings.
The former stables now serve as a wine tavern surrounded by a cobblestone courtyard that reflects the wine traditions of the Pfalz region. Visitors can experience here the traditional link between agriculture and winemaking that shaped this area.
The estate is now home to the Estelmann winery, formerly Hick. Its former stables hold a wine tavern of the same name, and the large paved courtyard, surrounded by greenery, is also used for food and drink. The site lies at Kurpfalzstraße 76 in the Gimmeldingen district, within the Kurpfalzstraße monument zone.
The central building underwent renovation in Neo-Renaissance style while the original agricultural buildings were preserved, creating an architectural ensemble from different periods. This approach allowed the functioning wine and dining business to integrate seamlessly with historical structures.
