Burg Westerburg, Medieval water castle in Dedeleben, Germany

The Westerburg Castle features two encircling moats and a 33-meter-high keep with an entrance positioned at 12 meters above ground level.

The castle became a significant fortress in 1180 when the Counts of Regenstein acquired it and expanded the structure into a residential complex.

The baroque castle chapel, constructed in 1681, contains a wooden pulpit altar from the late 17th century and hosts religious services and concerts.

The castle functions as a four-star superior hotel, offering accommodations in historical rooms and spaces for events including the Prince's Hall for 110 guests.

The Knight's Cellar represents the oldest section of the castle and maintains the capacity to accommodate 54 guests for special functions.
