Seeham Castle

The Seeham Castle is a lost moated castle on the Burgstallinsel in the Seehamer See between Großseeham and Kleinseeham , districts of the municipality Weyarn in the Miesbach district in Bavaria .

Presumably the castle was built by the Lords of Seeham mentioned in 1090.

The castle was owned by the Counts of Falkenstein (Großseeham-Falkenstein). The foundation walls of the castle were visible until the guiding structures were built .

Nothing has survived from the former castle complex, the moat to the mainland has been filled.
