Filseck Castle

Filseck Castle (German: Schloß Filseck) stands on a promontory where the Pfuhlbach joins the river Fils (a tributary of the Neckar) near Uhingen in the district of Göppingen, Baden-Württemberg, Germany.

[1] The castle is now a restaurant, museum and cultural centre,[2] and houses the Göppingen District Archive.

It was acquired by Burkhard von Berlichingen in 1596, and renovated in a Renaissance style.

Göppingen district acquired the property in 1986, and restoration work was completed in 1994.

Since 2008 the castle has been run by the Schloss Filseck Stiftung (Filseck Castle Foundation) of the Kreissparkasse Göppingen (Göppingen District Savings Bank).
