Schloss Anberg stands in Kalbach (Landkreis Fulda), in Hesse, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.

The Schloss Anberg no longer stands: this medieval castle once rose at Uttrichshausen, the oldest district of the municipality of Kalbach in the Landkreis Fulda, Hesse. First recorded in 1392 as a fief of Fulda Abbey, it passed through several noble owners before being bought back by Prince-Abbot Adolf von Dalberg in 1729 and turned into an agricultural estate. Sold to the local Catholic parish in the early nineteenth century, it housed a chapel, a school and a vicarage before being torn down in the mid-twentieth century. The present parish church of St Boniface now stands on the site, while the old cellars of the castle were filled in and remain underground.

What to know

  • The castle was demolished between 1953 and 1959, so there is no building left to visit.
  • Its former site is now occupied by the parish church of St Boniface in Kalbach-Uttrichshausen.
  • The old cellars of the castle still exist underground, but filled in and not accessible.
  • No visiting hours or admission fees exist, as no open structure remains.
  • The site mainly appeals to those interested in local history who wish to see the former Anberg quarter in Uttrichshausen.
