Totally impressive castle. My personal highlight is the castle church with its fantastic ceiling paintings.

The Neuchâtel of the last Count of Rothenburg, recognized as the predecessor of the Teutonic Order Castle, was owned by King Conrad III. passed to the Hohenlohe ruling family, who gave the castle as a fief to the Hohenlohe family. In 1269, shortly after the fall of the Staufers, the Hohenlohe people sold the castle to the Teutonic Order, who used it as their domicile. In the period that followed, the castle, which was expanded several times, developed into the preferred residence of the German masters. After the Reformation, the castle even became the headquarters of the High and German Masters in 1525 and thus the headquarters of the Teutonic Order after Horneck Castle was destroyed in the Peasants' Wars in the same year. The main base of the Teutonic Order remained here from 1527 to 1809. During this time, important guests such as the emperor and influential princes were received.[1] Between 1568 and 1628 the medieval moated castle was converted into a castle. For example, the Berwart Staircase was built in 1574 between the west and south wings. Between 1730 and 1799 the complex was expanded into a baroque palace https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schloss_Mergentheim

From the 16th to the early 19th century, this was the residence of the Grand and German Masters. To this day, Bad Mergentheim's townscape is characterized in many places by the Teutonic Order. A heritage that can be impressively experienced in the Teutonic Order Museum - the heart of the castle - on more than 3,000 square meters.
