To make a day of it

Herrensitz Schlößlein stands in Rothenburg ob der Tauber (Landkreis Ansbach), in Bavaria, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.

The Herrensitz Schlößlein refers to a former medieval tower house that no longer exists, located in the hamlet of Burgstall near Rothenburg ob der Tauber. The fortified building itself was torn down around 1870, and what remains on the site today is a farmstead with a manor house dating from 1858. This is not a castle open for visits in the usual sense, but a place whose name preserves the memory of a vanished seigneurial tower.
