Altes Schloss Neustadt an der Aisch

The old castle was built in the 15th century by Margrave Albrecht Achilles. This first construction phase was completed in 1489, and the castle was gradually expanded and rebuilt.
Anna of Saxony, wife of Albrecht Achilles, uses the castle as a widow's residence. Even after that, it served as a place of residence for members of the margravial family until 1626. After the completion of the New Palace in 1626, the respective provincial governors used it as an apartment.
After the end of the margrave period, the old castle first housed the regional court and the tax office, and later a municipal hospital. Today, the Markgrafenmuseum and the Aischfounder Carp Museum as well as the KinderSpielWelten are housed on the castle grounds.
