Marburger Schloss

The Marburger Schloss (or Marburg castle), also known as Landgrafenschloss Marburg, is a castle in Marburg, Hesse, Germany, located on top of Schlossberg (287 m NAP). Built in the 11th century as a fort, it became the first residence of Landgraviate of Hesse (HRE). The Marburg Colloquy was held here in 1529.

Today the building is used as a museum (Marburger Universitätsmuseum für Kulturgeschichte, Wilhelmsbau, since 1981) and as an event site.

The castle is located West of Marburg, Hesse, Germany, on top of Schlossberg ("Castle Hill").

In 1945, the Marburg Files were compiled at Marburg Castle.
