Leiningen Castle (1708) / Town Hall - Guntersblum 🚴‍

Located in the town center, Leiningen Castle has a rich history. The shell was completed in 1708, but further expansion was initially halted, as the then owner, Count Carl Ludwig von Leiningen-Dagsburg-Falkenburg, died in 1709. His wife, Countess Anna Sabina von Nostitz, sold the property to the Electoral Palatinate's Privy Council in 1717 due to financial difficulties. In the following years, the castle fell into disuse until, 70 years later, in 1787, a member of the Leiningen family once again became the owner. Count Wilhelm Carl zu Leiningen-Guntersblum renovated the impressive building and further expanded it for the purposes of the count's family. In 1833, the Guntersblum community acquired Leininger Castle at auction, and since 1834, it has officially been used as the town hall. Various administrative offices and the basement as an event space are also used.
The area in front of the castle was originally laid out as a sprawling castle park. Over time, this park was encroached upon by various buildings; today, a single fountain stands as a relic of bygone days. 🚴‍
