Former residential palace of the Princes of Hohenlohe-Kirchberg: around 1240 the castle of the Knights of Kirchberg, later expanded as a renaissance palace, in 1735 expanded with baroque structures.Since 2016 Kirchberg Castle has belonged to the "House of Farmers" foundation. It is the social work and socio-political foundation of the Schwäbisch Hall Farmers' Association, an association of 1,450 farms from the Hohenlohe region in Baden-Württemberg.
The foundation is committed to freedom, self-determination and social justice for the peasant and rural population. It is committed to the principles of sustainable action and sustainable management. In addition to its commitment to the local rural population, the foundation is committed to the implementation of fundamental democratic rights of indigenous peoples in rural regions worldwide.The aim is to create an interdisciplinary center for culture and education, an academy with a focus on ecological agriculture and the food industry. This includes gastronomy with local (organic) products and a hotel in the rooms of the castle, also for external guests. schloss-kirchberg-jagst.de
