Elnhausen Castle

Elnhausen Castle was a moated castle on the northwestern edge of the Marburg district of Elnhausen in the Hessian district of Marburg-Biedenkopf.

In 1251, the von Elnhausen family was first mentioned as the builders of the lowland castle. Other owners included the Lords of Weitershausen before 1528 and Kaspar Magnus Schenk zu Schweinsberg in 1604. During the Thirty Years' War, the complex fell into disrepair and was acquired in the early 18th century by the Hessian Vice-Chancellor Hermann von Vultejus.
