Gleisenau Castle

The place originally belonged to the Ebelsbach line of the Lords of Rotenhan. In 1417, the Bishopric of Bamberg gave the fiefdom and associated mill to the patrician Hans Dynter. In 1465, Heinrich Fuchs von Wallburg acquired Gleisenau from Jörg Kotner. In 1767 the Fuchs family sold the village and castle together with shares in Ebelsbach to the cathedral dean Otto Philipp Erhart Ernst Groß von Trockau. In 1968 the estate went from the Groß to the Schweinfurt company Kugelfischer, which converted the building into a company training center. In 1994, the community of Ebelsbach was able to purchase the former summer and hunting lodge. The outbuildings now house the municipal administration and the administrative community of Ebelsbach. The primary school was housed in the main building until 2013, which was sometimes referred to as the "most beautiful primary school in Bavaria" because of its elegant ambience.
