Füssener Schlosstour explores the Hohes Schloss, a late Gothic castle complex perched above the Bavarian town of Füssen. History and art meet throughout this castle complex.

Its towers include ancient keeps and former chapels, while preserved walls trace the medieval character of the site. Castle walkways lead through the complex and along its battlements. From these elevated paths, you can see Füssen’s old town, Forggensee, and the surrounding Allgäu landscape. Füssen’s old town spreads below the castle.

Illusionistic facade paintings from the 15th century add a distinctive visual detail to the castle exterior. The painted facades recall the castle’s artistic history. Art collections span the late Gothic period and extend through the 19th century. The collections cover several centuries of art.

Together, architecture, battlements, facade paintings, and collections present Füssen’s medieval heritage from several angles. The complex remains among Bavaria’s best-preserved medieval sites.
