Ehemaliges fürstbischöfliches Schloss, dann Landgericht und Rentamt stands in Greding (Landkreis Roth), in Bavaria, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

This Schloss in Greding was built in the late 17th century as a summer residence for the prince-bishops of Eichstätt, before serving as a court and later a tax office once Bavaria took over the town. It was here that the last prince-bishop, Joseph von Stubenberg, signed the 1802 document ending his temporal rule. The two-winged building, with its gabled roof, mezzanine floor and polygonal corner turret topped by an onion dome, remains a landmark of the town. Now privately owned, it cannot be visited inside.
