Schloss Truppach stands in the village of Truppach, part of the municipality of Mistelgau in Franconian Bavaria. Originally a medieval moated castle, it was destroyed in 1523 during a punitive campaign against robber knights active in the area, then rebuilt with timber granted by the Bishop of Bamberg. Now privately owned, the building combines a modernised, inhabited ground floor with upper sections that have largely kept their old appearance.

  • The site is listed as a Baudenkmal in Bavaria.
