Schloss Hadamar stands in Hadamar (Landkreis Limburg-Weilburg), in Hesse, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
Schloss Hadamar stands on the left bank of the Elbbach, in the centre of the town of Hadamar, on the site of a medieval stronghold once surrounded by a moat. Built as the seat of the Hadamar branch of the House of Nassau, it took on its present horseshoe-shaped form in the 17th century, with three storeys, cross-mullioned windows and Renaissance gables. The castle chapel, housed in the east wing since 1791, now serves as the church of Hadamar's Protestant congregation. The building itself is used today for administrative purposes, while the adjoining former outbuildings hold the town museum and a courthouse.
