History

The Hohenaschau castle was built in the last third of the 12th century, built in the Upper Priental by Conrad and Arnold of Hirnsberg. Significant noble families extended the property and built the castle to the center of the administrative seat of their dominion. Although the rule Hohenaschau was not a principality in the proper sense, but still had a number of sovereign rights such as the right of portrait and blood jurisdiction.

The rebuilding and extension of the castle in the Renaissance style (1540-1560) and the High Baroque (1672-1686) were the Baroque chapel and the former Benefiziatenhaus, today Prientalmuseum built. After further changes, especially from 1905-1908 by Theodor von Cramer- Klett, their property was transferred to the Federal Republic of Germany and is today used as a holiday residence of the Federal Finance Administration.
