    The listed Oberschwarzach Castle is located in Oberschwarzach, a market town in the district of Schweinfurt in Lower Franconia in Bavaria. The building is registered as a monument in the Bavarian list of monuments under monument number D-6-78-164-12.
    The former prince-bishop's office building was built under Prince-Bishop Julius Echter von Mespelbrunn in 1614 in place of an older castle belonging to the Truchsess von Henneberg. The three-storey building in the Renaissance style is covered with a gable roof, the two round, four-storey corner towers with bell domes. The narrow sides each have a stepped gable. On the courtyard side there is a polygonal stair tower. In addition to the castle, the building ensemble includes an inner courtyard with a barn, other farm buildings and the garden.

      Beautiful old castle, unfortunately cannot be visited at the moment due to renovation work.
