Schloss Frens is a Renaissance castle located in the Ichendorf district of the city of Bergheim in the North Rhine-Westphalian Rhine-Erft-Kreis.
As the ancestral seat of a family of Frens, the "Castrum Vrenze" is mentioned as early as 1263. By the beginning of the 14th century, this family must have died out, as the castle came into the possession of the Counts of Virneburg. In 1347, Ruprecht von Virneburg sold the estate to his stepson, Knight Rutger von Raitz, whose family subsequently named themselves Raitz von Frentz after acquiring the castle. The castle remained in the possession of this family for nearly 400 years.
