Ruine Berneck, Medieval castle ruin in Schramberg, Germany.
The stone remnants of Berneck Castle stand at 620 meters above sea level on a forested rock formation opposite the rock formation known as Teufelsküche.
The castle belonged to the Lords of Falkenstein and Ramstein, with archaeological findings indicating its construction occurred before 1230 based on the stone masonry techniques.
Archaeological excavations between 1960 and 1963 revealed ceramic goblet tiles from 1250 to 1275, indicating medieval residential structures within the castle grounds.
The castle ruin features a three-meter-deep moat surrounding its perimeter, with partial walls and residential tower remains still visible for visitors to explore.
A stone mason's mark found on one of the castle's blocks matches exactly with markings discovered at Ramstein Castle, suggesting both structures shared the same builder.
