Built in the 14th century as a hilltop castle

Markt Castle: The remains of Markt Castle rise above the Markt district, on a ridge that slopes down on three sides. The castle was first documented in the 14th century, but the oldest surviving parts of the building date back to 1525, when the Fugger family had it rebuilt as a palace.

The castle chapel of St. John the Baptist is located on the grounds of Burg Markt, a district of Biberbach in the Swabian district of Augsburg, Bavaria. The chapel was built between 1738 and 1739 according to plans by the master builder Simon Rothmiller from Höchstädt on behalf of Joseph Maria Fugger. It is an important example of the late Baroque period and is characterized by its artistic furnishings. Architecture and furnishings: • The chapel has magnificent stucco work and frescoes created by the artists Johannes Finsterwalder, Josef Höchstetter and Johann Georg Wolcker. • Particularly noteworthy are the wooden reliefs, which are believed to be by Daniel Mauch. • The interior impresses with its harmonious design and the use of high-quality materials. History: • The castle chapel originally served as a private place of worship for the Fugger family. • Over the centuries it has been restored several times to preserve its original splendor. • Today the chapel is a listed building and is an important example of Baroque sacred architecture in the region.

Markt Castle, also known as Fugger Castle, is located above the town of Markt, a district of Biberbach in the Swabian district of Augsburg, Bavaria. The hilltop castle on a spur probably dates back to the 14th century and consists of the rear (eastern) castle around the keep and the front (western) castle with the Onoldsbach tower. History: • The castle originally belonged to the Rechbergers and later the Pappenheimers. • In 1508 Jakob Fugger acquired the castle together with the Biberbach lordship and had it rebuilt as a castle in 1525. • The keep, the walls and the Onoldsbach tower have been preserved. Complex: • The castle includes the Catholic castle chapel of St. John the Baptist from 1738 to 1739, designed by Simon Rothmiller, as well as the former chaplain's house and some farm buildings from the 19th century. • The western part is used as a riding stable. • The keep was renovated in 2013. Current use: The Markt Castle is privately owned and is partly used for agricultural purposes.

Thank you very much for the information.

Interesting facts about the individual buildings of the castle - a little journey through time Keep The keep was first mentioned in a document from 1426. It did not always stand alone, but was connected to a residential building. Structural changes to the tower and residential wing were probably carried out in 1710, as a coat of arms from that year is embedded in the building. In 1852 the castle was demolished, only the white tower remained; it has eight floors and is 30.49 m high. When the cladding of the scaffolding in the form of a huge mobile toilet was visible from afar during restoration work in 2013, the Markt Castle gained media coverage across Germany. Forge The forge was built on the Markt Castle in the 1860s. It is located above an underground walled chamber in which the remains of a system for operating a groundwater pump have been preserved. Below lies a well shaft from the 16th century with passages branching off to the side, which are the subject of many legends. They are said to extend as far as Blankenburg and Marshal Erkinger is said to have fled from the Augsburgers through these tunnels. A treasure is also said to have sunk into this well. Church The current castle chapel of St. John the Baptist was built in 1738 on the site of the dilapidated late Gothic chapel; however, the tombs of the builders are not there. Eight family members of the ruling Fugger family were buried in the more important pilgrimage church in the neighboring town of Biberbach in a crypt under the chancel. After the branch church of the Biberbach parish was in danger of collapsing despite several renovations in the 20th century, the roof, dome, tower and facade were completely renovated between 2006 and 2010. Onoldsbach Tower In the first depiction of the castle, the Onoldsbach Tower is described as a "pleasure house", which at the time simply meant that leisure activities took place there. In the 17th and 18th centuries it was inhabited by the chaplain, which is why it was also called the "chaplain's tower". The name "Onoldsbach Tower" comes from the old name of the city of Ansbach, which was also subject to the feudal lord of the Markt outer bailey, the burgrave of Nuremberg.
