Local Authorities

The Künßberger Schlösschen in Kulmbach, Bavaria, is a historic building whose origins date back to the Middle Ages. Although popularly known as Künßberger Schlösschen, this name is due to a confusion with the Saltzmann family, who were largely responsible for its current appearance. It is one of the fortified manor houses of the city.

The history of the estate can be traced back to a predecessor building in 1398. Originally, such manor houses served to provide accommodation for local noble families who were obliged to defend Kulmbach and the Plassenburg.
