    The whole area and the surroundings around the chapel is very impressive.

      The chapel is closed until further notice due to renovation work (2023-12-31).

        The castle complex was first mentioned as Wazzerburch in 1085-1088. It was originally the seat of the counts of Wasserburg and from 1247 was owned by the Wittelsbach family, who used the castle as a short-term residence, especially in times of crisis. The castle complex was expanded between 1526 and 1537 by Duke Wilhelm IV. Today a retirement home is housed in the Ducal Palace and other buildings in the complex.

          The castle chapel was built by Jörg Tünzl in 1446 in the form that still exists today.
