Ermreuth Castle is a manor in Ermreuth in Upper Franconia, a district of Neunkirchen am Brand. The three-story hipped roof building was owned by various Frankish knight families in the Middle Ages and early modern times. From 1926 the estate became a meeting place and place of training for leading National Socialists and has been the residence of right-wing extremist Karl-Heinz Hoffmann since 1980.
