Erbach Palace is a palace in Erbach im Odenwald and the seat of the Count of Erbach. It was originally built in the middle ages, but most of the buildings today date back to the early 18th century. The palace houses the extensive antique collection of Count Francis I (Erbach-Erbach).

The oldest historical record about the building was from the 12th century. The rulers of Erbach, probably Count Gerhard I, built the first castle in the 13th century.[1] Between 1500 and 1530, the castle was rebuilt in the Renaissance style.
