Wasserburg Klemme, Medieval fortification in Eisenach, Germany.
The structure incorporated water features with a square layout measuring 150 by 100 meters, positioned near the Hörsel river and city walls.
Built in 1261, the castle suffered destruction in 1306 during the Wartburg siege, leading to its mandatory reconstruction by Eisenach citizens in 1308.
The castle served multiple functions through centuries, transforming from a military stronghold to a prison, then an agricultural center and military barracks.
The former castle grounds now form part of Theaterplatz in central Eisenach, with modern buildings occupying the historical location.
The castle's water moat maintained its water level through natural groundwater, forming an integral part of the defense system.
