Structure of Taxöldern Castle

In 1904 the ruined hunting lodge stood south of the Taxöldern church. It was a rectangular, three-story building. On the north side there was an extension with a spiral staircase . The doors were arched with chamfered throats. The windows were rectangular, also with chamfered edges. This year the castle was demolished because it was in disrepair.

The arched door frames as well as the wall and vault parts of the demolished Palatine hunting lodge are still preserved . These parts were integrated into a new residential building. The Taxöldern branch church St. Johannes Baptist was the former castle chapel. The former forester's house, which used to belong to it, is a gabled house with a Gothic core , which was extended in 1759; it is northwest of the church. It has a pointed arched door in the fletz , its windows are rectangular with fluted edges. The castle, church and forester's house were previously enclosed by a wall, some of which is still preserved.
