    Unfortunately, the palace and park are closed. A sign refers to the corona pandemic. Maybe you will be lucky later

      The palace park used to be public! However, access is currently not permitted. All that remains is the view through the fence.

        The castle was built on the site where a castle had stood since the Middle Ages, which was destroyed in the Peasants' War and the Thirty Years' War. It was owned by various houses, from the late 17th century to the late 18th century by the Lords of Mentzingen, until it was bought by the Margraves of Baden, Friedrich [...] in 1790. [...]

        Count Ludwig Wilhelm August von Langenstein and Gondelsheim had the current castle built in 1857. The plans for the building, which was built in Scottish neo-Gothic style, were drawn up by the Freiburg architect Georg Jakob Schneider. In 1906, additional wings were added in the Art Nouveau style.

        In 2003, a nymph fountain was built in the castle park, financed by donors. It is a replica of the original "Three Dancing Girls" by Walter Schott in 1903 and of which there are only four other examples worldwide.

        On May 21, 2010, the sale of the Gondelsheim Castle by Axel Graf Douglas to a Heidelberg businessman was notarized.

        The tower on the hill near the castle next to the church is the "indestructible" church tower of an old fortified church.
