The New Castle in Ingolstadt stands as one of Bavaria's most significant Gothic secular structures of the 15th century. Commissioned by two Wittelsbach rulers—Louis VII, Duke of Bavaria-Ingolstadt, and Duke George the Rich of Bavaria-Landshut—the castle represents the architectural ambitions of the dynasty during this period. It adjoins the Herzogkasten, the city's older medieval fortress from the 13th century, creating a layered architectural landscape that traces Ingolstadt's defensive evolution. Today recognized as an architectural heritage monument in Bavaria, the New Castle exemplifies the refined Gothic style that characterized princely residences of late medieval Bavaria.
