    Sternberg Castle in the municipality of Sulzdorf an der Lederhecke in Lower Franconia is a baroque four-wing complex around a central courtyard, the corners of which are marked by a tower with an onion dome. The castle is adjacent to the castle chapel, which faces north in the portal.

    In the 12th century, the people of Henneberg received the area around Sternberg from the diocese of EichstÀtt as a fief. In 1199, Count Heinrich von Henneberg-Sternberg built a castle on the site of the current castle.

      A castle worth seeing. With a bit of luck and asking, you can visit it, as we once did with a group from our hometown. It was a coincidence, as residents were eating in the local pub and we got chatting. There is a giant sequoia tree in the park, which is a rare find.

        Perfect, unfortunately privately owned and therefore not to visit
