Ruine Albeck, Medieval castle ruin in Sulz am Neckar, Germany
The stone remains of Albeck Castle stand at 548 meters above sea level, featuring sections of defensive walls and residential buildings from medieval times.
The Geroldseck family controlled the castle until 1471, when Count Eberhard captured it during a night raid and incorporated it into his territories.
The castle ruins demonstrate medieval German architectural methods through preserved round-arched windows and stone bench seats built into wall niches.
Information boards along hiking paths near the castle explain its construction phases and historical events through detailed illustrations and text.
Archaeological excavations at the site uncovered Bronze Age pottery fragments, indicating human settlement long before the medieval castle construction.
