Schloss Waldleiningen stands in Mudau (Neckar-Odenwald-Kreis), in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. Recorded dating: 19th century. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
Schloss Waldleiningen stands in a secluded side valley of the Odenwald, on the grounds of Mörschenhardt, part of the municipality of Mudau. The princely House of Leiningen first built a wooden hunting lodge here, named after one of its former domains in the Palatinate lost to France, before a Gothic-style artificial ruin was erected and later demolished. The present castle, modeled on British country houses such as Abbotsford, the home of Walter Scott, was built from 1828 and completed in 1873. The building now houses a psychosomatic clinic and is not open to the public as a monument.
