Top 18 Castles around Oberried

"The Jesuit Castle [sic] is located on the northern Schönberg hill. Its name derives from the Jesuits who taught at the University of Freiburg from 1620 onwards. They received the estate as a gift from the Schnewlin-Bernlapp family of Bollschweil on February 10, 1635. According to the plaque above the entrance, dating from 1901, the manor house was built in 1666. When the order was dissolved in 1773, it passed to the government of Further Austria. Various owners changed hands subsequently, and it was mostly used as a noble residence. Since 1985, following several phases of renovation, the Freiburg Holy Spirit Hospital Foundation's winery, the Freiburg Foundation Winery (established in 1298), has been located on the property. In 2007, the castle hall and the castle park were lovingly renovated for celebrations. Since 2009, conferences have been held on the first floor of the castle building." ``` The manor house was built on the northern side of the Schönberg hill. https://www.merzhausen.de/freizeit-kultur/jesuitenschloss

Only a part of the wall and a tower wall remain.

In 2017, a residents' initiative was founded to revitalize the park, which had come under fire due to robberies. The almost one-meter-high wall facing Rotteckring was torn down and replaced by a wall half as high for sitting and lying. Flower beds were planted on the lawn. The redesign of Rotteckring was completed in the summer of 2018.[16] At the beginning of 2019, the city presented its plans to redesign the park for 2.5 million euros. Since, among other things, it was planned to set up a playground again at the northeast corner, the meeting place for drug users was to be moved to the northwest corner, which the residents there opposed. The work should have been completed in the summer of 2021.[17][18] In July 2020, the town hall announced that due to the strained budget situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the three-million-euro redesign was on hold for the time being. A small solution was being sought. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colombischl%C3%B6ssle

Beautifully lit at Christmas time. Inside is a museum of prehistory and early history. Stone Age finds from the surrounding area. Many grave goods and finds from Celts and the Romans.

The Colombischlössle was built between 1859 and 1861 in the neo-Gothic style by Georg Jakob Schneider on the demolished baroque bastion of St. Louis. The builder was Countess Maria Antonia Gertrudis de Colombi y de Bode. Between 1947 and 1952 it served as the seat of the Baden State Chancellery. Leo Wohleb ruled the independent state of Baden from here. The museum, which has been in existence since 1983, is the showcase of archaeology in southern Baden. All eras from the Paleolithic to the Early Middle Ages are on display. Some of the objects presented from the region are of supra-regional, even international, importance. On display are Paleolithic female figures - the oldest known works of art in southern Baden -, evidence of metal production from the Bronze Age and precious items from Celtic princely graves, such as the oldest glass bowl north of the Alps. Roman achievements in craftsmanship, everyday life and the military are vividly presented. Regional finds from the early Middle Ages and the Alamannic treasury complete the ensemble. Opening times Tuesday, Thursday to Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Source:https://www.verein-keltenwelten.de/keltische-staetten/freiburg-colombischloessle/

The Archaeological Museum is open despite the construction work on the building and in the park. Interesting information can be found here: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arch%C3%A4ologisches_Museum_Colombischl%C3%B6ssle The opening hours are Tuesday to Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Wednesday until 7 p.m.

The castle was first mentioned in documents in 1079. The relatively extensive area is not secured. Enter the ruins at your own risk! The center of the castle is located on a hill surrounded by a deep moat. There is still an impressive wall at the top. Crashed and fallen trees are lying everywhere. But if you like castles and forests, you're in good hands here. Below the remains of the wall in the middle you have a wonderful view towards the Höllental entrance. The streets here were probably also the reason for the construction of the castle. For more information see e.g. here: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burg_Wiesneck

Great view. You should be surefooted. Making fire is forbidden.
