    Abensberg Castle was first mentioned in 1256. The roughly rectangular layout of the outer castle is separated from the main castle by a deep moat. On the north and west side there are baroque buildings, former official buildings with gable roofs. The flanking tower on the northeast corner dates from the 13th / 14th Century. On the southern ring there is a late Gothic semicircular tower, next to it a head building with a mansard roof. After the destruction during the Thirty Years' War, only the remains of the 13th and 14th centuries are left of the main castle. Century. Remains of the ring wall, the flanking towers, the kennel and a hipped roof on the south side have also been preserved.

    The city fortifications that were built in the 14th and 15th centuries were connected with the castle fortifications.

    The castle garden is very nicely laid out

      The historical remains of the castle ruins with the city wall in Abensberg dating back to the Middle Ages, which are under monument protection, are historical witnesses from past decades.
