Abbach Castle Ruins Ahabach Castle was first mentioned in a document on May 6, 973. Abbach Castle is believed to have been the birthplace of Emperor Henry II, but this cannot be proven. On November 1, 1007, Emperor Henry II donated the site to the Bishopric of Bamberg, which he founded. Abbach Castle was taken over by the Wittelsbachs around 1200; at that time, the Wittelsbachs had also succeeded in gaining control of the Danube toll at Abbach. The castle was allegedly destroyed by the Bishop of Bamberg when he handed Abbach over to the Prüfening Monastery. However, Duke Ludwig I had it rebuilt in 1224 and compensated the monastery with Königswiesen near Regensburg and Matting. Subsequently, the Duke significantly expanded his holdings in the Abbach district. In 1297, Abbach was burned down during a feud between the Bavarian Dukes Otto and Stephan and the citizens of Regensburg. Afterwards, the castle, which served only as the steward's residence, was rebuilt on a smaller scale. In 1564, neglect of the surrounding wall and the castle itself was noted. A land register from 1586 contains the following note: The castle has a wide courtyard, in the center of which stands a round tower that has been roofless for many years, as well as a deep well that does not always provide water. The strong surrounding walls have partially collapsed. During the Thirty Years' War, in 1632 and 1634, the citizens of Abbach and the surrounding area fled to the castle and defended it. In 1705, during the War of the Spanish Succession, Abbach surrendered to the Austrians without a fight. Between 1740 and 1745, Abbach was repeatedly sacked as a result of the War of the Austrian Succession. Demolition work on the castle buildings began in 1803; by 1832, almost all buildings except the keep had been removed. In April 1945, the Heinrichsturm (St. Henry's Tower) was hit by bombs because it had housed a German Wehrmacht observation post. The tower, which is now accessed via a steel staircase above the old high entrance, was renovated in the early 1980s. The 27-meter-high late Romanesque tower has a four-and-a-half-meter-thick rubble masonry. Inside the tower are two stacked octagonal chambers with helmet vaults. Remains of the castle's ring wall have also been preserved. Source: Excerpts from www.wikipedia.de

Alteglofsheim Castle The name comes from the Eglofsheim family. Since the 10th century there has been a moated castle here with an associated manor. The castle was rebuilt and expanded several times over the centuries. From 1480 to 1573 the Barons of Parsberg owned the castle and manor. In 1659 Johann Georg Baron von Königsfeld bought the Alteglofsheim estate. In 1685 he became an Imperial Count. In his will in 1694 he left the estate to his grandson Hans Georg Graf von Königsfeld. He was the Minister of State and Conference of Elector Karl Albrecht and First Minister during his time as Emperor. From 1728 to 1734 he had the castle significantly expanded and refurbished. His successor Count Christian Johann August von Königsfeld, Elector's ambassador in Vienna, added the north wing of the castle with the magnificent dining room in 1780. In 1810 the Königsfelder family died out. The Barons of Cetto followed as owners, and in 1835 Prince Maximilian Karl von Thurn und Taxis acquired the castle. The Princes of Thurn und Taxis sold it to a priest in 1939, and it later went to his housekeeper. The war and post-war period led to the castle being used for other purposes, and it fell into increasing disrepair. In 1973 the Free State of Bavaria acquired it and made it available to the University of Regensburg in 1980. In 1989 the castle was designated as the location for the third Bavarian Music Academy. Construction work began in 1992. The Music Academy began operations here in June 1999. After extensive renovations and refurbishments the castle was handed over to its new purpose in September 2000. The late Gothic core of the complex with the 35-meter-high keep in the west dates from the beginning of the 14th century. It towers over the high gable of a building with two round flanking towers from the early 17th century. Around 1680, a wing with a two-aisled chapel in the basement was leaning against it in the south. Around 1730, it was extended to the west after the south-north wing had been started at a right angle to it. Elaborate ceiling frescoes by the Asam brothers and elegant stucco ceilings created by Johann Baptist Zimmermann adorn the castle. Tours of the castle are only possible for groups by prior arrangement. Source: Excerpts from www.wikipedia.de

Köfering Castle The first moated castle on the Pfatter was probably built in the 12th century. The Köfering family was first mentioned in the middle of the 12th century. Around 1300, the castle was owned by Eckprecht von Haidau, who gave it to the Bishopric of Regensburg in 1307 in order to receive it as a fief from the bishop. Other owners of the castle were Otto Zenger, Albrecht von Abensberg, Heinrich Nothaft von Mangolding and Scheuer. In 1427, Dietrich von Stauf took over the castle in Köfering by exchange. On December 26, 1491, the Köfering fortress was besieged and destroyed by the Bavarian Duke Albrecht IV with 1,000 soldiers during the Löwler League uprising, in which the castle owner Hieronymus von Stauf took part. The Counts of Lerchenfeld have owned the moated castle since 1569. The castle was damaged in the Thirty Years' War and rebuilt in its current form from 1680 to 1720. Renovation began in 1980/81. The moated castle is an irregular, baroque, three-storey three-wing complex with mansard hipped roofs, an entrance projection with portal, ground floor arcades and a staircase with a mansard hipped roof. The White Hall with inlaid parquet and the chapel are worth seeing. The castle complex consists of a central projection, to which only a north wing is connected. To the west there is another wing with protruding corner projections, and to the south the one-storey former stable building is attached. A three-arched stone bridge leads over the walled moat, which is still preserved, and is the only access to the castle. Source: Excerpts from www.wikipedia.de

The castle park only came into being at the end of the 18th and during the 19th century. The English landscape garden with enclosure was designed by Carl Joseph von Effner from 1872, incorporating the remains of the Emmeram Bastion and the city wall.[Note. 2] The entire area, which was referred to as Emmeramer Breiten, lay directly in front of the city wall, which enclosed the buildings of the castle and the monastery and then followed the course of Petersweg. In front of the city wall on the site of today's castle park there were also other sections of the fortifications. They were cleared under Prince Karl Anselm von Thurn und Taxis in order to plant trees on the site. Later, under Prince Bishop Karl Theodor von Dalberg, the site was sold to Prince Karl Alexander von Thurn und Taxis. His wife Therese zu Mecklenburg had the small garden palace Theresens Ruh built in the eastern section. The classical villa was hit by a bomb at the end of the Second World War. The damaged building was surprisingly completely demolished in 1945. Today the castle park is not freely accessible, but annual events take place in the castle park and in the courtyard of the castle, including a garden show in June, the Thurn and Taxis Castle Festival in July and since 2001 the Christmas market at Thurn and Taxis Castle.

Heinrichsturm - Abbach Castle (with the so-called Heinrichsturm, popularly also known as Hungerturm) are the remains of a hilltop castle in the market town of Bad Abbach. It is assumed that the Bavarians had already built a fortification here on the remains of a Roman fort, but there is no evidence of this. Ahabach Castle was first mentioned in a document on May 6, 973. Abbach Castle is associated with the assumption that Emperor Heinrich II was born here. However, no historical evidence can be found for this assertion. On the other hand, it is correct that on November 1, 1007, this emperor donated this place to the bishopric of Bamberg, which he had founded, whereby Bishop Otto made available the fief Abbach, which had been settled after the death of the Bamberg fief bearer Friedrich von Pettendorf, for the Prüfing monastery, which he founded in 1107. In 1183 the Counts of Abensberg held a court day here, although it is unclear what these claims were based on. The Counts of Bogen and after their extinction in 1242 the Wittelsbacher owned the Vogtei right over the monastery. Abbach Castle was taken over by the Wittelsbach family around 1200 (possibly not until 1224); At that time the Wittelsbachs had also succeeded in bringing the Danube toll near Abbach under their control. The castle was said to have been destroyed by the Bishop of Bamberg and the Abbot ofpcening when Abbach was handed over to thepcening monastery. Duke Ludwig I had this rebuilt in 1224 and compensated the monastery with Königswiesen near Regensburg and Matting; the agreement reached on the castle and the castle hill was confirmed on November 22, 1231 by Pope Gregory X. As a result, the duke significantly expanded his holdings in the Abbach office (the revenue from customs was essential for this). Abbach Castle was the starting point for the creation of a court district of Abbach, subdivided into the court brands Schierling and Sandsbach. The castle was probably also intended to serve as a counterbalance to the expansion efforts of the bishop of Regensburg.
