Schloss Reichartshausen stands in Oestrich-Winkel (Rheingau-Taunus-Kreis), in Hesse, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. No visits are on record for this building.
Schloss Reichartshausen stands amid the vineyards between Oestrich and Hattenheim, on the old road that once crossed the Rheingau from east to west. The site began as a wine estate belonging to Eberbach Abbey as early as 1152, before taking on its present U-shaped form around 1737 to 1740 under Abbot Hermann Hungrighausen. After passing through the hands of several princely and comital families during the nineteenth century, it has housed the EBS business school since 1980 and is not open to the public as a visitable monument.
