Wasserburg Eschelbronn, Medieval castle in Eschelbronn, Germany.

The stone fortress features a moat system, multiple residential floors, and defensive structures positioned near the Schwarzbach River in Baden-Württemberg.

Archaeological excavations conducted from 1971 to 1975 revealed the castle's evolution from a wooden structure in 1220 to a stone fortress by 1375.

The castle served as a noble residence, evidenced by the discovery of tiled stoves and glass windows dating back to 1300.

The structure's remains now form part of a lake area, created after the extensive archaeological research in the 1970s.

The findings from this castle's excavation provided the blueprint for the reconstruction of Bachritterburg Kanzach, an exact replica built in 2000.
