Schloss Obergimpern stands in Bad Rappenau, in the Landkreis Heilbronn, in Baden-Württemberg. The building grew out of the administrator's house of an earlier moated castle before becoming the seat of the von Yrsch family and later their descendants. It is a rectangular three-storey structure with a hipped roof, an exterior staircase and a north-facing balcony bearing the Yrsch family coat of arms. Around the main house are older farm buildings and a garden laid out in the mid-18th century.
