Burg Warberg

The castle stands on the eastern edge of the Elm mountain range, featuring a 19-meter-high square tower and upper and lower sections.

Founded in the early 13th century by the nobles of Warberg, the castle replaced an earlier fortress destroyed in 1199 located two kilometers southwest.

The castle now functions as an agricultural business academy, connecting farmers, companies, scientific institutions, and policymakers through educational programs and seminars.

Visitors can reach the castle via the A2 highway exits at Königslutter or Helmstedt/Marienborn, with rail access through Helmstedt station.

The upper castle contains a stone main house and a chapel first mentioned in 1346, surrounded by a 15-meter-wide moat and a 38-meter rampart.
