Ratzenried Castle, also known as the Lower Castle, is located in the Ratzenried district of the municipality of Argenbühl in the Ravensburg district. It was built at the end of the 15th century by the Humpis family of merchants from Ravensburg and evolved over the centuries from a stately residence into a prestigious castle complex with a wealth of architectural features. The building represents the transition from a medieval aristocratic residence to a Baroque country palace and has been closely linked to the history of the Ratzenried estate for more than five centuries. Today, it houses the headquarters of the Humboldt Institute, an internationally oriented language institution, and the castle is considered a defining architectural element of the townscape.
