Burg Wiedelah, Medieval water castle in Wiedelah, Germany
The stone fortress stands at the confluence of the Ecker and Ocker rivers, featuring a rectangular keep with walls measuring 3.5 meters in thickness.
The Lords of Gowische constructed Burg Wiedelah between 1292 and 1297, using stones from the demolished Harliburg under the influence of Hildesheim Bishopric.
During the Renaissance period around 1600, the Quitzow family transformed the military fortress into an elegant palace, reflecting the architectural changes of that era.
The castle grounds remain in private ownership and maintain their original defensive features, including a moat system surrounding the main structure.
The castle's central tower measures precisely 8 by 9 meters and stands truncated at the height of the southern wing's eaves level.
