Le château en bref
Schloss Marthalen, also known as Schloss Oberhausen, is a fifteenth-century manor house in the Oberdorf of Marthalen, in the Zurich Weinland. The Denkmalpflege gives 1492 as the date of construction, with some parts attributed to around 1440. It has a stepped gable on the north side and, together with the Schlossscheune, a former stable and wine press, forms a rural seigneurial estate with a vineyard. The enclosure wall and the gatehouse tower were demolished in 1871. For about three centuries, the estate belonged to the Schaffhausen family of the Peyer, who used it as a summer residence. The archaeologist Ferdinand Keller was born there in 1800. It is now in private hands.
