The Eberstein Castle, also known as Neu-Eberstein or Neueberstein, is a castle in Gernsbach – Obertsrot in the Baden-Württemberg district of Rastatt, Germany.
Otto I von Eberstein built this castle in 1272, but all that’s left of the original structure are the ramparts and the foundation of the keep. William IV of Eberstein expanded the castle in the 16th century, as did Philip III in the 17th century. At the end of the century during the Palatine War of Succession, or Nine Years’ War, Prince Leopold Wilhelm and the nuns of the Convent School of the Holy Grave found safety here.
