Ramburg, Medieval castle ruins in Ramberg, Germany

The fortification stands at 444 meters above sea level on Schlossberg hill, featuring a substantial shield wall and remains of a residential tower.

Built between 1100 and 1200 under the House of Hohenstaufen, Ramburg served as an imperial castle to protect Trifels Castle until its destruction in 1525.

The castle represents the architectural style of medieval German defensive structures, with its hexagonal residential building and strategic positioning above the valley.

Visitors can reach the castle ruins through the Ramburgweg trail, which leads uphill from the village of Ramberg through the Palatinate Forest.

The castle structure includes a rock cellar supported by square columns carved directly into the southeastern edge of the central rock formation.
