Schloss Buttenhausen

Münsingen, Germany, Germany

---

Schloss Buttenhausen is a classicist manor house (often called the Weidenbach’sches Schloss) located in the village of Buttenhausen, which belongs to the town of Münsingen in Reutlingen district, Baden‑Württemberg, Germany.

It was built around 1816 above an older lordly farmstead for the noble von Weidenbach family in a simple, stately classical style and long served as their seat in the formerly imperial‑immediate village. In the mid‑20th century the estate was sold to the city of Stuttgart and turned into a care and shelter home for people with disabilities, addiction issues, and socially vulnerable youth, and today the former Schloss functions as the administrative center of the diakonic institution Landheim Buttenhausen.

The main building at Wasserstetter Straße 4 is still visible and can be viewed from the outside, forming a quiet, historic landmark in the small village rather than a classic tourist castle.
