Schloss Hof stands in Cham (Landkreis Cham), in Bavaria, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.
Schloss Hof no longer stands as a building: what remains at Cham, in the Landkreis Cham, Bavaria, are the buried remnants of a former medieval castle that later became a manor house. An old engraving by Michael Wening depicts a two storey structure on a hill, topped with a gabled roof, with a tower and a partial timber palisade around it. Today only the vaulted cellars survive, built from granite rubble and dating to the 14th and 15th centuries.
