Crailsheim Castle

The castle belongs to the winegrowers' cooperative and cannot be visited.

Crailsheim Castle in Rödelsee, a municipality in the Lower Franconian district of Kitzingen (Bavaria), was built around 1600. The former castle at Schloßstraße 2 is a protected architectural monument.

The two-story building with a gabled roof, volute gables, and an external staircase was built around 1600 for the Barons of Crailsheim. The courtyard gate is adorned on both sides by lions from the 18th century. In 1954, the regional winegrowers' cooperative bought the castle and its outbuildings. The Winzergenossenschaft Franken (Franconian Winegrowers' Cooperative) now operates a wine gallery in the building. The winery operations were moved to Repperndorf years ago. The castle is listed as an architectural monument by the Bavarian State Office for Monument Protection, while the remains of the previous building in the ground are classified as an archaeological monument.
