Burg Siersburg, Medieval castle ruin in Rehlingen-Siersburg, Germany
The castle remains stand on a steep hilltop overlooking the Nied valley before its junction with the Saar River, providing control over water routes.
First mentioned in documents from 1175, the castle changed ownership multiple times between the Duchy of Lorraine and the Archbishop of Trier through medieval times.
The castle grounds now host regular events including medieval markets, summer cinema screenings, and festivals that bring local history to life.
A designated walking path leads visitors to the castle ruins, with parking facilities available at the base of the hill for convenient access.
The castle served as an optical telegraph station in 1813 on the Metz-Mainz communication line until Prussian forces took control of the region.
