The castle guard was also referred to as the main guard, in contrast to the five city gate guards, which were also militarily manned until around 1840 (Dammtor in the south, Everstentor in the west, Haarentor in the west, Heiligengeisttor in the north, Stautor in the east).

The Oldenburger Schlosswache is located on the Schlossplatz and thus in the immediate city center of Oldenburg. It was built in 1839 as a guard building for the Oldenburg military for the military guarding of the castle opposite. After various functions as a police station and service building of the Oldenburg city administration, the building has been used as a bank building by the Landessparkasse zu Oldenburg (LzO) since 1951 at the latest. The current address (2017) is Schlossplatz 7–8.
