The Baroque Steinenhausen Castle was once owned by the von Guttenberg family, who sold it in 1935. In 1987, the castle became the property of the Free State of Bavaria. Today, the Kulmbach branch of the Bavarian State Office for the Environment is located in the building. An avenue of fruit trees has been planted along the driveway to the castle. The gardens are used for measuring equipment and small-scale nature conservation projects.

Nice well-kept area. Not bad for a little walk and a photo or two!

In 1987 the castle became state owned. The Kulmbach field office of the Bavarian State Office for the Environment is located there. Extensive interior and exterior renovations significantly shape the appearance of the baroque castle.
