The Hohes Schloss, or High Castle, is a historic castle located in Füssen, Germany. It was once the summer residence of the prince-bishops of Augsburg and now houses a branch gallery of the Bavarian State Collections of Paintings, which focuses on late Gothic and Renaissance works of art. The castle features unique illusionary paintings in its inner courtyard and offers a stunning view of the city and surroundings from its battlements and towers.
