The castle dates back to the Middle Ages and was expanded into its current form in the 15th century. It is picturesquely situated on the banks of the Jagst River and impresses with its solid stonework and historic flair. Today, it is privately owned but houses, among other things, a hotel and serves as a venue for the Jagsthausen Castle Festival, where Goethe's "Götz von Berlichingen" is performed annually on the open-air stage.

The current complex, consisting of the two-winged core building, was built by the von Berlichingen family in the 15th and 16th centuries. Götzenburg was the birthplace of the "Knight with the Iron Hand", Götz von Berlichingen was born here in 1480. The designs of the Ulm Minster master builder August von Beyer led to the largest remodeling of the castle between 1876 and 1878, during which the south wing and the gate tower were built and the park around the complex was laid out.

It is definitely worth a visit.

Beautiful castle, which is also used as a hotel.

Hello folks, I live in Merchingen.. it is a district of the municipality of Ravenstein (Baden Württemberg) with postal code 74747. There is probably another Merchingen in Germany. Our Merchingen is a small town with a beautiful old castle; a golf course and a great children's playground. Our cycle path leads into the Kessachtal and the Jagsttal. Please do not confuse 😃

The Götz quote – the “Swabian greeting” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe created a literary monument to him in the third act of his play Götz von Berlichingen, which was published in 1773 and premiered in 1774, with the “Götz quote”: “But tell him, he can kiss my ass!” So Götz von Berlichingen certainly did not want to “greet” the emperor when he exclaimed: “But tell him, he can kiss my ass!” – he simply wanted to be left alone by the emperor.

In Ravenstein-Merchingen (located in Baden-Württemberg) there is a castle whose history dates back to the 12th/13th centuries. century goes back. The Lords of Berlichingen lived here for a long time, at least it was their property. Definitely worth a stop and look around.
