Bodenhof Castle

The castle, whose oldest parts date from the early 16th century, has been rebuilt several times. A restoration took place in 1644, a historicizing redesign between 1890 and 1910, and a general renovation between 1920 and 1930. The north tower was erected in 1927.

The two-story castle building with an attic floor has an irregular floor plan. The west portal and the windows date from the Baroque period. In the eastern half, a late Gothic shoulder arch portal and the partially late Gothic surrounds of the ground floor windows are preserved. The polygonal tower in the southeast corner has late Gothic pointed arch windows and is one story higher than the rest of the building. The fountain made of reddish marble on the southern outer wall is dated 1633.

The chapel, dedicated to the Three Magi and Saint Anthony, is housed in the substructure of the southeast tower. According to the building inscription at the entrance, the chapel dates from 1479. The chapel, extending over two floors, is a two-bay room with a three-eighths closure and a late Gothic sacrament niche. The neo-Gothic paintings above the altar, depicting the Baptism and the Nativity of Christ, were probably painted by Johann Martin Schmidt.
