Schloss Hausen (Bad Soden) stands in Bad Soden-Salmünster (Main-Kinzig-Kreis), in Hesse, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.
Schloss Hausen stands in Bad Soden-Salmünster, in the Main-Kinzig-Kreis, on the site of a moated medieval stronghold first recorded in 1319 as Husen. Built originally by the von Jazza family, the estate later passed to the lords von Hutten before being sold to the Archbishopric of Mainz in the sixteenth century, which turned it into an administrative seat. The complex still includes an older residential tower and outbuildings, among them an administrative building dating from 1581. Today the site houses a municipal daycare centre and is not open to the public as a heritage site.
