Burg Niederurff, Medieval castle in Niederurff, Germany.
The castle features complete inner walls, outer fortifications, and remaining sections of the main residential building situated above the village.
Built between 1000 and 1100, the castle was first documented in 1160 through a deed of donation mentioning the Lords of Urff.
The fortified church of Niederurff, documented in 1085, indicates the early regional importance of this settlement and its defensive structures.
The castle and its surrounding park remain in private ownership, making them currently inaccessible to public visitors.
In 1309, the Lords of Urff transferred the castle to Count Heinrich IV of Waldeck under specific usage conditions and feudal arrangements.
