The Alzeyer Schloss stands on the eastern edge of Alzey's old town in Rhineland-Palatinate, on the site of a medieval stronghold that later became a residence of the Palatinate counts. Destroyed by French troops in 1689 during the War of the Palatine Succession, it remained a ruin for two centuries before being rebuilt in the early twentieth century. Today the building houses the local district court, so visitors mainly view its exterior and setting.
