Abenberg Castle

Abenberg Castle

Two towers – the slender Luginsland watchtower and the massive Schottenturm (Schott Tower) – dominate the striking silhouette of the castle. Neither was built until the 1880s of the 19th century. In the 11th and 12th centuries Abenberg Castle became the seat of the powerful Counts of Abenberg - church advocates of the bishops of Bamberg.
After the Abenbergs had died out around 1200, the Hohenzollerns, by trade the castellans of Nuremberg, inherited the building. They began rebuilding today's castle about 1230, which went on until about 1250. Later they rarely spent any time here. In 1296 Konrad the Younger sold Abenberg to the bishop of Eichstatt.
