Burg Eschweiler, Medieval castle in Eschweiler, Germany.
The stone fortress stands on the banks of the Inde River, featuring strong defensive walls and multiple chambers within its architectural design.
During French occupation in the 1700s, the castle served as a strategic military point before becoming part of Prussia in 1816.
The castle grounds host educational tours that demonstrate medieval construction techniques and the daily operations of historical fortifications.
Visitors can reach the castle via the A4 motorway, with parking facilities available at Dürener Strasse, 300 meters from the entrance.
The castle maintains its original water defense system, including a series of channels that connected to the Inde River for protection.
