Schloss Batzenhofen was originally a summer residence of the St. Stephan canonesses' chapter in Augsburg, built above the Schmutter river on land the institution had held since the Middle Ages. The current building, erected around 1750 with a two-story, L-shaped plan and a hipped roof, went through a succession of uses over the centuries, serving as a brewery with an inn, a children's home, and later a retirement home for many decades. Following a renovation completed in 2013, the building was converted into a multi-unit residential house and is not open to visitors on the inside.
