Description

The Curti Castle was a two-house castle with a residential tower and aristocratic residence of the von Curti family in the town of Groß-Umstadt, Darmstadt-Dieburg district, Hesse, which was rebuilt and expanded around 1655 and demolished in 1963.

The property was built on an old castle man's house and was located in the immediate vicinity north of the Wambolt and Palatinate castles. It was located north of these castles on the other side of today's Curtigasse. When the palace was built, it ended directly at it, was formerly called Wamboltsgasse and later Kötzengasse until the 19th century. The castle was once located in the middle of the western city wall and was one of the seven aristocratic residences in the city. It was protected by the witches' tower of the city wall, which existed until 1716 and was directly adjacent to the estate. To the northeast of it, within shouting distance, were two more aristocratic courts, the simplest and smallest, called the Old Wambolts Hof and the Rodenstein Castle. The aristocratic residence was part of the western protection of the old town and was located at 162 m above sea level.
