Among art historians, Isenburg Castle is considered a remarkable Renaissance object. This is evident from the differently designed facades on the north and south sides of the castle. The south side facing the city is a loosened Renaissance façade with archways between two stair towers, while the north side facing the Main shows a fortified façade made of parts of the older building fabric.
