    Birkenfeld Castle is located in Birkenfeld, about two kilometers west of the Maroldsweisach market in the Haßberge district in Lower Franconia. The large estate complex is considered one of the most important castle complexes of the 18th century in Lower Franconia. A special feature is the conception as a rural villa, which was planned and implemented uniformly from the main residential building to the farm between 1738 and 1752.

      Four houses around the historic estate have been carefully restored over the years without affecting their individual charm. Whether it's a former goose keeper's house, a wheelwright's shop or a garden house - each building has its own flair. All are set up for a relaxed and relaxing holiday. You can now rent the apartment in the castle where the cook once lived. Rooms are available in the former manager's house and in the gatehouse.

          In the midst of the overwhelming nature of Lower Franconia, the palace complex was built in the 18th century as a private health resort for Philipp Freiherr von Hutten. The palace complex was built in 1738-1758 on the foundations of a former moated castle. The manor complex impresses with the ensemble of a four-wing central castle, gardens, pavilions, a spacious park, outbuildings and a supply courtyard. By marriage, the castle came into the possession of the Counts of Ortenburg in 1841. (via schlossbirkenfeld.de)

              The castle Birkenfeld was built from 1738 to 1748 on the foundations of a former moated castle and is still today in the possession of the Counts of Ortenburg. After the recent, very comprehensive renovation work, there are now also rooms available for private recreation seekers and company parties. The castle can also be visited by appointment.
