Schloss Langenbruck stands in Vilseck (Landkreis Amberg-Sulzbach), in Bavaria, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.

Schloss Langenbruck once stood in Vilseck, in the Amberg-Sulzbach district of Bavaria, on the site of a village that no longer exists. Built in the 18th century on the grounds of an older ironworks first recorded in 1402, the two-storey manor house with its double hipped roof was torn down after the village was forcibly cleared in 1948, when American forces took over the area to expand the Grafenwöhr training range. Nothing of the building remains today, the land now lying within the grounds of Rose Barracks, a US military installation.

What to know

  • The manor house was completely demolished after 1948 and can no longer be visited.
  • The former site now lies inside a US military area (Rose Barracks) with no public access.
  • No visible remains of the old Schloss or the village of Langenbruck survive today.
  • There is no visitor information, opening hours or admission fee, since the building no longer exists.
