History

The castle is mentioned for the first time in the 12th century,[2] and was modified in the 14th century. It is a property of the Thurn und Taxis counts. It is famous for the decorated "Green Hall" with Gothic paintings and a woodcarved chapel-door, the stubes and the collection of armor.[3] The castle also contains an original kitchen, bathroom and medieval sleeping bunks. One of its owners included William P. Carr, who bought the castle a bit before World War II. At that time, his last name was Reifenstein, but before he went to war he changed his name to Carr.[1][4]
