Schloss Erching, Castle with moat in Hallbergmoos, Germany

The three-story castle stands on a circular island measuring 70 meters in diameter, surrounded by a water-filled moat spanning 25 to 35 meters wide.

Bishop Albert Sigismund commissioned architect Hans Moosbrugger to construct this hunting lodge in 1652, which remained under episcopal control until 1802.

The castle complex includes the St. Walburga Chapel, a single-hall structure from 1672 with a polygonal east tower crowned by a Swiss-style roof.

The property operates as a private residence, requiring visitors to maintain distance and respect posted access restrictions at all times.

Joseph von Utzschneider transformed the estate in 1829 into an experimental farm focusing on potato and beet cultivation with an integrated sugar factory.
