Hammerschloss Hirschbach stands in Hirschbach (Landkreis Amberg-Sulzbach), in Bavaria, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

The Hammerschloss Hirschbach is a former ironmaster's residence built on a stone base, topped with timber-framed upper floors dating from a 16th century rebuilding.

Its history spans the Margrave Wars and the Thirty Years' War, with several destructions and reconstructions along the way.
