The castle was built from 1679 to 1687 for the Oettingen-Spielberg line by Mathias Weiß from Kassel and adorned with magnificent stucco work by Mathias Schmuzer from Wessobrunn. A special experience are the thematic and special guided tours through the residential rooms and the castle museum.

The Residenzschloss is open from April to October, Tuesday to Sunday, between 2 PM and 3 PM. A visit is only possible as part of a guided tour, and combined tours with the castle museum can also be booked.
