Werneck Castle Werneck Castle is a former residence of the Prince-Bishops of Würzburg in the Bavarian market town of Werneck. The Baroque three-winged complex was built between 1731 and 1747 on the orders of Friedrich Karl von Schönborn, based on a design by Balthasar Neumann. During the conversion of the castle into a hospital starting in 1853, all interior rooms except the castle church were destroyed. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schloss_Werneck

The Barons of Münster owned the estate in Vasbühl until 1740. Gustav Erhard von Münster built the castle in Vasbühl, which still stands today, in 1677. Above the castle portal, the Münster-Rotenhan coat of arms commemorates the builder. The gable end of the Baroque building is almost identical to the tithe barn on the Roßmarkt in Schweinfurt (now the Kreissparkasse). The castle is already heavily dilapidated and is still used as an agricultural property. Church of St. James the Elder During demolition work in 1930, a stone bearing the date 1411 was found in the high altar. This suggests that a type of cemetery chapel already stood on the site of the present church around 1400. The construction of the Julius Tower with its pointed spire and the three eastern bays of the nave of the Vasbühl church is dated 1580. The tower is one of many Echter towers built in Franconia by the Würzburg Prince-Bishop, Julius Echter von Mespelbrunn. In 1686, the church was expanded under Prince-Bishop Johann Gottfried von Guttenberg, and the pointed-arch portals were reused. Since Schleerieth, Vasbühl, Eckartshausen, and Egenhausen belonged to the Schleerieth chaplaincy, there was dissatisfaction with the church service times. The offer to summon a monastic chaplain to Vasbühl was rejected, as the nearest monastery was five to six hours away. The people of Vasbühl knew how to cope and took in two priests exiled from France. The "French gentlemen," as the people of Vasbühl called their temporary priests, lived in Vasbühl and were supported by the locals through alms and food. In return, they held services, including sermons and Christian teachings on Sundays, as best they could. With true French vigor, they are said to have pounded on the pulpit to emphasize their words when their dear pastors sometimes couldn't or didn't want to understand them. The two deceased French priests were buried on the north side of the church tower, where embedded stone gravestones are located. In 1808, a Rococo high altar was purchased, after which the cross vault near the choir was removed and a new choir arch was built. The life-size figures on the high altar, St. Agnes and St. Barbara, are attributed to the workshop of Peter Wagner.

In addition to the numerous shrines, the Catholic church of St. James and the former castle, built in 1677, are worth seeing.

Extensive restoration work is currently underway and great progress is already being made. It will probably be some time before the castle can be visited.

Work has been going on in, on and around the castle for months. The inner castle grounds are being renovated, and the old walls are to be made accessible to many guests. It is to be a living monument that invites people to linger and celebrate. That is the intention of Marcel Neubert, the last descendant of the von Bibra family, who have lived there since the 16th century, and who is managing the extensive undertaking. (Info: MainPost)

Actually a beautiful old building, but unfortunately not "developed for tourism".

A wonderful experience to hike through the vineyards and enjoy the views

The formerly magnificent moated castle was severely damaged and dilapidated. Today it is privately owned and is being renovated in a lengthy process and some of it is being converted into apartments.
