Burg Eisenhardt, Medieval castle in Bad Belzig, Germany.

The stone fortress stands on Bricciusberg hill, featuring a 28-meter-high central keep that overlooks the Brandenburg countryside and surrounding forest.

The castle originated from a Slavic fortification called Belizi in 997, later controlled by the Ascanians who transformed it into a Romanesque stronghold.

The castle grounds host summer concerts by the band Keimzeit since 1998, bringing musical performances to the medieval courtyard setting.

The castle complex contains a local history museum, city registry office, historical library, and hotel accommodations for visitors to Bad Belzig.

Swedish troops caused substantial damage to the castle during the Thirty Years War in 1636, leading to extensive renovations in the 1680s.
