Burg Landeck, Medieval castle in Teningen, Germany.

Burg Landeck is a castle ruin near Teningen located at about 285 meters elevation with substantial stone walls remaining from the medieval period. The site displays building structures from different construction phases and offers views across the surrounding Baden-Württemberg landscape.

The upper and lower castles were built around 1269; a Dietrich, Vogt of Landecke, is documented in 1260. In 1277 the castle passed to the brothers Heinrich and Walther von Geroldseck, and in 1298 Count Egino II of Freiburg and Freiburg citizens besieged it. In 1525 rebellious peasants destroyed it and it was never rebuilt.

The castle chapel of St. Catherine, attached to the lower castle's hall, was first documented in 1315 through co-owner Heinrich von Rappoltstein. Its Gothic chancel arch, windows with ribbed vaulting and corbel figures can still be made out in the masonry. The Snewlin family gave the place its name: Konrad Snewlin called himself "Schnewlin von Landeck" from 1354.

The site is accessible via multiple hiking trails that depart from various starting points in the surrounding area. A restaurant called Burgschenke near the ruins offers a place to rest and grab refreshments during your visit.

The castle was split into an upper and a lower ward, separated by a ditch that is now shallow. The lower ward's hall building measures about 20 by 10 metres and has late Romanesque and early Gothic double windows. A small chapel with a Gothic chancel arch projects from its northeast side.
