The so-called New Castle was built by Johann Tobias Otto, owner of the Obersteinach iron hammer works, as a mansion between 1747 and 1755 with the main building and the adjoining tower. Parts of a previous building from the 17th century were probably integrated. In 1771/72 an extension followed with a south and west wing. After a fire in 1799, the main building was rebuilt in 1804. In 1844, Sachsen-Meiningen acquired the hammer mill together with the property and used it as an administrative building and district court with a prison as well as for residential purposes. There were renovations at the end of the 19th century and in the context of use by the German Slate Museum in the 1990s. In addition, the building houses the Steinacher toy box, the city library, the tourist information and the office of the Silbersattel ski arena. The two-storey building complex consists of the main building with tower, the attached south wing and the free-standing west wing, which together enclose a courtyard. The facades are structured by stone pilaster strips and cornices. The main building is characterized by a mansard gable roof with a dwelling and a portico on the courtyard side. The four-storey tower has a square floor plan, which changes into an octagon on the fourth floor and is closed at the top by a French dome with a lantern.
