Schloss Holzschwang
Schloss Holzschwang stands in Holzschwang, a locality within Neu-Ulm, Bavaria, with Renaissance forms shaped by later Baroque additions. The two-storey half-timbered building carries a gabled roof and square corner towers.
Construction began under the Roth family in 1561, linking the site to Ulm’s patriciate and the region’s changing fortunes. A Baroque portal added in 1762 marks the building’s later architectural phase. The residence reflects a period when urban noble families acquired estates beyond their city walls as signs of influence and status.
The Neubronner family still owns the castle, which retains its character as a Kunkellehen, or hereditary fief. Its half-timbered walls and ornate portal bring Renaissance structure and eighteenth-century Baroque detail together in one compact landmark.
