The Oberes Schloss stands in Alfdorf, in the Rems-Murr-Kreis, and now houses the town hall. Built at the very start of the 17th century, it has a rectangular three-story main block flanked by two four-story towers on its east facade. Above the main entrance, carved coats of arms recall the two noblemen who commissioned the building. Over the centuries the manor passed through several owners before becoming a public building.
