Schloss Hafenpreppach stands on a low rise above the hamlet of Hafenpreppach, in Maroldsweisach, in the Landkreis Haßberge, Bavaria.

On the park side, a raised terrace rests on four arches beneath a ball-topped balustrade, while inside the west wing holds a broad two-flight staircase. The estate now serves as the private home of painter and composer Anton Höger.
