Ehemalige Wirtschaftsgebäude des 1896 abgebrochenen Schlosses stands in Berg bei Neumarkt in der Oberpfalz (Landkreis Neumarkt in der Oberpfalz), in Bavaria, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. No visits are on record for this building.

At Berg bei Neumarkt in der Oberpfalz, what remains is not the manor house itself but the former farm and service buildings of a Schloss that was pulled down in 1896. The complex forms a two storey four wing structure under a hipped roof, with corner towers on its northern side, its core dating back to the 16th century. The residential tower that once stood here was destroyed and rebuilt more than once over the centuries and finally vanished, leaving these outbuildings as the visible trace of a lordship first recorded in 1129.
