Gundeldingen Castle

Gundeldingen Castle is a castle in the Gundeldingen neighborhood of the municipality of Basel of the Canton of Basel-Stadt in Switzerland. It is a Swiss heritage site of national significance. Originally four related castles, today parts of only two remain.

Further down Gundeldinger street is the Lower Middle Castle (Unteres Mittleres Gundeldingen). This castle was built around 1400 and was originally surrounded by a pond. In 1344 it was recorded as having been owned by Konrad Matzerer, a deceased lay brother of the nearby Saint Alban Monastery. In 1401, Agnes von Dornach combined the Lower and Upper Middle Castles into a single estate. However, after her death in 1415 the Lower Castle was inherited by the Schermann family of Basel.
