Schloss Obergünzburg stands in Obergünzburg (Landkreis Ostallgäu), in Bavaria, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. No visits are on record for this building.

The Schloss Obergünzburg stands in the heart of the market town of Obergünzburg in Bavaria and now serves as town hall and seat of the local administrative community. Built in 1570 as a granary and town hall for the market, it retains its three-storey gabled form, complete with an oriel window and a loading dormer typical of such civic buildings. It is not a residential or defensive castle but a historic public building that passed through various administrative roles, from a Pflegamt office of the Kempten principality to present-day Bavarian municipal use.

What to know

  • The building today houses the town hall and municipal administration, so it is not open as a typical tourist attraction.
  • Its exterior, with the oriel window and loading dormer, can be freely viewed from the market square.
  • There are no visiting hours or admission fees, as it functions as an active administrative building.
  • The structure dates from 1570 and was originally built as a granary and town hall.
