Built in 1550, in 1700 the castle came into the possession of the Augsburg patrician family von Stetten through marriage

Wolfgang von Paler the Elder was granted sheep in 1550. He commissioned the construction of a new palace around 1550/60. The building was presumably destroyed by the Swedes in 1648. The new owner, Raimund Egger, had the palace rebuilt.

Hammel Castle is located in the Hammel district of the town of Neusäß in the Augsburg district, Bavaria. The castle is owned by the von Stetten family. History: • 1550: Wolfgang von Paler the Elder is granted Hammel and initiates the construction of the new castle around 1550/60. • 1648: The building is probably destroyed by Swedish troops during the Thirty Years' War. • After 1648: The new owner, Raimund Egger, has the castle rebuilt. • 1700: Through marriage, two thirds of the castle becomes the property of the Augsburg patrician family von Stetten; later the family also acquires the remaining share. • Mid-19th century: Extensive renovation work is carried out. • 1891: Under the planning of the Augsburg architect Jean Keller, the east-west wing is extended and the facade structure is renewed and the south gable is decorated with neo-Gothic battlements. Architecture: The castle consists of two three-story wings. The shorter "old building" has a gable roof and a facade structure with neo-Gothic battlements. The surrounding wall is equipped with four defensive towers, including the so-called Malakow Tower on the southeast corner, which was provided with a balustrade and an arbor-like structure made of wood in 1856. Current use: Hammel Castle is still owned by the von Stetten family and is not open to the public. However, the historic complex is an important cultural monument in the region and an example of the architecture and history of Augsburg's patrician families.

The former Prince-Bishop's Residence in Augsburg is a magnificent historical building that once served as the residence and seat of government of the Prince-Bishops. The residence is located near Augsburg Cathedral and the Fronhof and bears witness to the former power and influence of the Diocese of Augsburg. The building, whose origins date back to the Middle Ages, has been rebuilt several times over the centuries and today mainly shows elements of the Baroque and Rococo periods. The richly decorated façade and the magnificent interiors of the residence are particularly impressive. The halls and reception rooms are decorated with elaborate stucco work, frescoes and ceiling paintings that reflect the wealth and art patronage of the Augsburg Prince-Bishops. The Golden Hall and the Hall of Mirrors are among the most famous rooms and are examples of the high baroque craftsmanship. The residence is now the seat of the Episcopal Ordinariate and thus continues to be an important part of the Catholic Church in Augsburg. Visitors can view parts of the building on special tours and gain an insight into the magnificent living culture and the historical significance of the prince-bishops for Augsburg and the region. The residence is an important architectural and cultural heritage of the city and an outstanding example of baroque architecture.

Here, the church's money was clearly invested in favor of its leadership. Whether that was wise is debatable. At least it is now available for everyone to use.

The castle was built at the end of the 17th century on the same site where several previous buildings had stood. It is privately owned and not open to the public.

Hammel Castle is located in the district of Hammel and is owned by the von Stetten family.
