Schloss Colmdorf, also known as Schloss Carolinenruhe, stands in the Colmdorf district of Bayreuth. The present stone building, erected in the mid eighteenth century after an earlier wooden structure had burned down, owes its five-bay façade and two side wings to the court architect Rudolf Heinrich Richter. Notable features include a wrought iron balcony bearing the initials of Margravine Sophie Caroline, and two carved sandstone portals that once framed the approach drive. The estate has remained in private hands, passed down through generations since the late nineteenth century.
