Burg Arnesvelde, Medieval castle ruin in Ahrensburg, Germany.

The castle remains include earthen ramparts and moats spread across six hectares of land on the eastern side of Hopfenbach Valley.

Built in the second half of the 11th century by Count Heinrich I of Hamburg, the castle served to manage northeastern Stormarn and secure the route between Hamburg and Lübeck.

The castle image appears in the upper field of Ahrensburg's city coat of arms, representing the medieval heritage of the region.

Visitors can access the archaeological site through walking paths, with information boards explaining the castle's features and historical context.

The castle complex features an oval hill with a possible ring-shaped structure and a western ramp leading to the former Ahrensfelder pond.
