Medieval castle for sale: Bavaria

A medieval castle was traditionally defined by three characteristics: impregnability, self-sufficient provisioning during a siege, and generously proportioned living quarters. The castle is located in Upper Franconia, between Coburg, Bayreuth, and Bamberg, close to several UNESCO World Heritage sites. Its hilltop position and surrounding fortified wall provide a secluded, protected setting.

Perched above the village of Mainberg in the municipality of Schonungen, the castle occupies a prominent position overlooking the Main River and the surrounding Franconian landscape. Woodland and vineyards frame the property, which lies just 3 kilometers from the Schweinfurt city limits. The city bus network is within easy reach and the nearest highway is approximately 10 minutes away by car.
