Burg Graß stands in Regensburg (Regensburg), in Bavaria, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. No visits are on record for this building.

In the Graß district of Regensburg, almost nothing remains of this medieval stronghold apart from a chapel and traces of the moat that once surrounded it. Built probably in the 12th century and first recorded in the early 14th, Burg Graß belonged in turn to the Grazze and Löbl families before passing to the Teutonic Order's commandery in Regensburg. Destroyed during the Thirty Years' War in the early 1630s, it was never rebuilt. Only St Michael's chapel, which incorporates part of the old ring wall, and some remains of the moat still bear witness to it today.
