Schloss Spielberg stands in Oberschweinbach (Landkreis Fürstenfeldbruck), in Bavaria, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. Recorded dating: 11th century. No visits are on record for this building.

Schloss Spielberg stands in the hamlet of Spielberg, part of the municipality of Oberschweinbach, on the site of a medieval stronghold founded around 1150 by the lords of Spielberg. The present building, a four-towered Baroque structure later reworked in Rococo style, was erected in 1624 by the Imhoff patrician family after the old Burg was torn down. Alongside it stands the late Gothic castle chapel of St Cajetan, built in 1588 and later extended in the Baroque period. The complex later housed a Franciscan convent and has served as the Oberschweinbach town hall since 1998.

What to know

  • The Schloss now houses the Oberschweinbach town hall and is not set up as a museum for visitors.

  • No opening hours or admission fees are published, since the building primarily serves administrative purposes.
