Schloss Elnhausen
Marburg, Germany, Germany
Schloss Elnhausen is a Baroque manor house in the Elnhausen district of Marburg, Hesse, Germany, built between 1707 and 1717 on the site of a former medieval water castle that dated back to at least 1251.
Commissioned by Hermann von Vultejus, a high-ranking official in Hesse-Kassel, after he purchased the ruined property in 1672, the two-story, nine-axled structure features a central risalit with a broken-arch portal, flanked by dormers and a hipped roof, surrounded by farm buildings on a former moated quadrangular layout with only a southern wall-graben remaining.
Passed through noble families like von Heydwolff after 1750, it stands privately preserved at 225 meters elevation on the Stöckelsberg slope, offering a rare example of French-inspired Baroque architecture amid rural Hessian countryside.
