Ehemaliges Fuggerschloss

Boos, Germany, Germany

---

The Ehemaliges Fuggerschloss (Former Fugger Castle) in Boos, Bavaria, is a historic castle complex whose main structures date back to the second half of the 16th century.

It was originally owned by the influential Fugger family, one of Europe’s most powerful merchant and banking dynasties, and served as the center of their local estate. The complex includes the former castle buildings, farm structures, and a notable baroque chapel built in 1716, featuring decorative stucco work and paintings from the 18th century.

Both the castle and chapel are protected historical monuments. After years of vacancy and deterioration, the site entered a major restoration project in 2025. Plans include preserving its historic character while converting it into a mixed-use development with residential, commercial, and community spaces, ensuring the long-term future of one of Boos’s most important heritage landmarks.
