Schwäbis Castle, also known as Schwäbisch Hall Castle, is a historic site located in the town of Schwäbisch Hall in the Baden-Württemberg region of Germany. The town is famous for its well-preserved medieval architecture and its history as a free imperial city during the Holy Roman Empire. Schwäbis Castle, though not as commonly mentioned as some other castles, plays a role in the rich history of the region.

Schwäbisch Hall, the town surrounding the castle, dates back to Roman times and grew significantly during the Middle Ages. The area was historically known for its salt production, which was central to the town's prosperity. The townscape features a blend of medieval alleys, towers, and Renaissance buildings, including the town hall and the Church of St. Michael​

The castle, part of this medieval heritage, is situated near the Kocher River, and while not as prominent as other regional castles, it contributes to the architectural diversity of the town.

While the specific details about Schwäbis Castle itself remain sparse, Schwäbisch Hall as a whole offers visitors a glimpse into the medieval past, with many other attractions like the saltworks museum and annual festivals celebrating the region's history​.
