Grecken Castle Bad Friedrichshall

Bad Friedrichshall, Germany, Germany

---

Grecken Castle (Greckenschloss) is a Renaissance palace in the Kochendorf district of Bad Friedrichshall, Baden-Württemberg.

It was built between 1599 and 1602 by Wolf Conrad Greck II and served as the residence of the noble Greck family, which had been influential in the area since the late Middle Ages. Although the castle was damaged during the Thirty Years’ War, it was restored and remained an important local landmark.

After the Greck family line ended, the property changed hands and was used for various purposes over the centuries, including as an administrative center, school, factory, and temporary housing. Today, Grecken Castle is one of Bad Friedrichshall’s most notable historic buildings. Its well-preserved Renaissance architecture and more than 400 years of history make it a significant cultural monument and a symbol of Kochendorf’s heritage.
