Oberburg Heldenbergen, Medieval castle in Nidderau, Germany
The Oberburg stands on a steep slope above the Nidder River, featuring a U-shaped structure with three wings constructed in the 17th and 18th centuries.
The castle belonged to the Lords of Heldenbergen in the 12th century, with Gieselbert von Heldenbergen serving as the first burgrave of the Imperial Castle Friedberg.
The north gate building displays the Hattstein family coat of arms on its timber-framed upper floor, while the main entrance portal bears the von Rohde family emblem.
Located at Windecker Strasse 18 in Nidderau, the castle remains private property of the Leonhardi family and maintains restricted access to visitors.
The castle complex includes foundations from medieval times, a gatehouse, stables, and a barn built in traditional half-timbered construction techniques.
