The castle Ellrichshausen is an Outbound castle near the Protestant church in Ellrichshausen, in the municipality of Satteldorf in the district of Schwäbisch Hall in Baden-Wuerttemberg .

The castle was the ancestral seat of the Lords of Ellrichshausen, first mentioned in 1271, who were initially Lohrian, then Hohenlohian and Ansbach feudal people until the mid-14th century and of whose various lines the Assumstadt branch still exists today. The castle was called the Burgstall early on and has completely disappeared.
