    Geisa Castle once served as a hunting lodge and summer residence for the principality in Fulda. Today the headquarters of the Point Alpha Foundation is located here, which is dedicated to educational and research work on the Cold War in Europe and the maintenance of the Point Alpha memorial towns at Geisa. The rooms on the ground floor can be used for meetings and celebrations.

      The Geisa Castle was built under Prince Abbot Adalbert von Schleifras on old foundation walls and vaults to the left of the former district court under the direction of the well-known Fulda master builder Johann Dientzenhofer. It served as a hunting lodge and summer residence for the Fulda prince abbots and prince-bishops. The coat of arms of Adalbert von Schleifras can be seen above the wide portal.

        A nice place with a good hotel in the castle, unfortunately without a restaurant.
