The whole estate is yours
During your rental period, nothing else takes place here. No other guests, no second celebration, no curious onlookers. 15,000 square metres of castle, courtyards, gardens and forest, just for you.
A 16th-century fairytale castle in the Kraichgau, exclusively yours for an entire weekend. Registry office, ceremony, celebration and 70 beds in one single place. No change of venue, no neighbours, no curfew.
The place where dreams come true.
Nine reasons that you’ll struggle to find all in one place anywhere else.

During your rental period, nothing else takes place here. No other guests, no second celebration, no curious onlookers. 15,000 square metres of castle, courtyards, gardens and forest, just for you.

You can have a civil ceremony, a church wedding or a celebrant-led ceremony here. Indoors or outdoors, conducted by a minister, a wedding celebrant or a registrar. All on one site, whatever the weather, without a single change of venue.

Two banquet halls in the castle and manor house, a party lounge, salons and a castle courtyard with a large marquee. Your celebration grows with your guest list instead of being squeezed into one room.

Two historic rooms where you can each get ready separately: tall windows, plenty of daylight for hair and make-up, and room for bridesmaids, hairdresser, make-up artist and photographer. Feel-good moments instead of pre-wedding stress.

Eleven rooms are right in the castle, the rest in the manor house, forest lodge and coach house. No shuttle, no taxi, no sober farewell at midnight. In the morning, everyone gathers round the breakfast table again.

Our nearest neighbour is the forest. There is no curfew and no noise limit. You and your DJ decide when your party ends, not the clock.

We have made a conscious decision not to run our own restaurant. You choose from our experienced catering partners the one that suits you best in terms of taste, price and personal approach. From food trucks to six-course menus.

Neuhaus is a vast playground offering a level of freedom that no other venue can match. You decide on the programme, the service providers and who brings the rings to the altar. We almost never say no; instead, we ask: ‘How would you like it?’

We don't just rent you rooms. As event professionals, we advise you from your very first question, coordinate with your suppliers, check in your overnight guests and ring your wedding bells.
Your big celebration deserves to be celebrated in style. Most venues give you just a few hours. With us, the castle is yours from Friday to Sunday: arrive, take a deep breath, get everything ready together, and finish with a brunch where everyone can come together one last time.
More than 70 beds in 27 lovingly furnished rooms and suites, spread across the castle, manor house, forest lodge and coach house. Eleven rooms are inside the castle itself, with stucco ceilings, views of the greenery and four-poster beds. Live like nobility and sleep like royalty, surrounded by everyone who matters to you. Parents, best man and maid of honour, old friends: everyone stays.
The registry office, church and celebrant-led ceremonies are all located on a single site here. You don’t have to choose between a beautiful setting and short distances – you get both.
The Sinsheim registry office holds ceremonies right here in the castle, in the Linley ceremony hall on the third floor. A historic setting, accessible by lift, with castle charm instead of an office corridor.

Our historic chapel with bells, altar, organ and stained-glass windows enchants everyone. Something special among castles: it can be used for ceremonies of any or no denomination and seats up to 150 people.
Romantically by the fountain with a view of the castle, or in the shade of a 220-year-old beech tree. Your wedding celebrant shapes the ceremony entirely around your story.
A first at Neuhaus: you can have a celebrant-led and a civil ceremony in one single ceremony. This legally binding 2-in-1 wedding is possible on Saturdays until 3 pm in the castle park, led by our wedding celebrants.
A place that is
yours alone.
A lovingly run fairy-tale castle from the 16th century in the Kraichgau, where only one celebration takes place each weekend: yours.
Enquire about available datesIn summer, our weekends are often booked up over a year in advance. You can see the current availability here. Weekdays and the off-season are almost always available and slightly cheaper.
That varies widely, ranging from 595 euros for a purely civil ceremony on a Wednesday to a luxurious weekend wedding with 140 guests, including catering and fireworks, costing as much as a sports car.
We’ll outline the factors affecting the rental price so that you can calculate the rental cost yourself straight away using the slider.
Although our rent is not calculated directly from the number of guests, it does tell us which rooms, and how many, you will need for your wedding. Up to 50 guests, for example, can celebrate comfortably in our manor house. For 80 guests, the marquee in the inner courtyard would be a good choice. And if you are planning for up to 140 people, you will need the entire castle.
Would you like a purely civil ceremony lasting 30 minutes, a one-day wedding, a Saturday wedding with one overnight stay, or even a wedding celebration spanning the whole weekend? Besides the duration, the rental price also depends on the day of the week and the month you choose.
Would you like guest rooms, and if so, how many and for how many nights? We have 11 suites in the castle, 9 guest rooms in the manor house and 6 guest rooms in the forest lodge, which you can book by building for one or two nights. You decide whether to cover the costs yourselves or pass them on to your overnight guests.

We do not operate our own catering service. Instead, we work with seven selected catering companies that have been working with us for many years. You are free to choose whichever one you prefer.
Yes. The Sinsheim registry office conducts marriages on Wednesdays and Fridays in the Linley ceremony hall in the castle. On Saturdays, we offer the combined ceremony: celebrant-led and civil in a single, legally binding ceremony, until 3 pm in the castle park. Dates for purely civil ceremonies are allocated by the registry office.
Both are warmly welcome. The grounds are child- and pet-friendly, with plenty of space to run about and no roads nearby.
The castle belongs to the von Gemmingen-Hornberg family. It is operated as a wedding and event venue by a separate company.
