The Burgstall Sanzenbach is a lost moated castle in the hamlet of Sanzenbach at 364.8  m above sea level. NN of the community Rosengarten in the district of Schwäbisch Hall in Baden-Württemberg .

history

The moated castle, which is closely linked to the early history of Sanzenbach, was first mentioned in a document in 1375 and burned down in 1584. In the course of its existence, ownership of the castle and with it the local rule over Sanzenbach often changed within the Haller citizenship, or it fell temporarily to the imperial city itself, but always remained in Halle's possession. From 1558 until it was destroyed, the complex was owned by a branch of the Erer patrician family from Heilbronn and Hall , which was named after the Erer von Sanzenbach castle and is said to be in Crailsheim until the 18th century. The Erer (also Ehrer, or Eherer) from Sanzenbach were matriculated in the knightly canton of Odenwald .

Only watercolors are evidence of the former castle complex .
