Schloss Klingenstein stands on a rocky spur above the Blau valley in Blaustein, in Baden-Württemberg. Built in 1756 on the foundations and vaulted cellars of an earlier medieval stronghold, it retains rococo interior decoration, visible in particular in the staircase and in the chapel dedicated to the Holy Trinity. Visitors can walk through the castle courtyard and see the remains of the old Burg Klingenstein that still stand to the south and west of the inhabited building.

- The castle is privately inhabited; only the courtyard and the remains of the old Burg can be visited, not the interior.
- The rococo chapel inside contains an altarpiece painted by Johann Baptist Enderle.
- A foundation, the Leube-Stiftung, has maintained the site and its surrounding structures since 1974.
- No opening hours, fees or access details are available, so it is worth checking locally before visiting.
