Schlosshof Murten is a historical site in Murten (Morat), Switzerland, comprising the ruins of a medieval castle and an adjacent courtyard now used as an open-air concert venue. The original castle dates back to the 12th century, playing a significant role in the regional power struggles between the Counts of Gruyère and the Dukes of Savoy. While largely destroyed in wartime during the 1470s, portions of the outer walls and towers remain.

The Schlosshof has become a popular location for cultural events, particularly during the summer months, leveraging its atmospheric setting and acoustics. The space is designed to accommodate temporary stage structures for performances while preserving the historical integrity of the site. The venue offers a unique backdrop for musical experiences due to its blend of architectural remains and natural surroundings.
