To make a day of it
Neues Schloss Tettnang stands in Tettnang (Bodenseekreis), in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. Adult admission costs 8 EUR. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
Tettnang Castle, known in German as the Neues Schloss, stands on the site of a medieval fortress destroyed during the Thirty Years' War. Construction of the present building began in 1712 for the Counts of Montfort, combining a Renaissance-influenced exterior with baroque interiors decorated with stucco and frescoes by noted artists from the Lake Constance region. A fire in 1753 destroyed much of the structure, which was later rebuilt with Austrian financial backing. Visitors today can see the state rooms on the first floor, while other parts of the building still house administrative offices.
