Before the Waldnaabtal Museum moved into the walls of Neuhaus Castle, this historic place had a long history behind it.

The castle was built in 1300 as a hunting lodge. In 1515 it was sold to the Waldsassen monastery and after secularization it became the property of the market town of Neuhaus. Luckily, the castle was spared war damage, so you can visit the magnificent museum there today.

The mighty butter churn tower towers above the castle, which was probably planned as a hunting lodge and built around 1300.
