Hohenzollern Castle

Two-thirds of the castle belong to the Brandenburg-Prussian line of the Hohenzollern (presently Georg Friedrich, Prince of Prussia), while one-third is owned by the Swabian line of the family (Karl Friedrich, Prince of Hohenzollern).

The current castle is the work of the famous Berlin Architect Friedrich August Stüler, who, while still the student and heir of Karl Friedrich Schinkel, was appointed the Architect of the King in 1842.
