Wasserschloss, Water castle in Höchheim, Germany.
The Wasserschloss Irmelshausen stands as a medieval stone structure surrounded by water, featuring defensive walls and traditional Bavarian architectural elements.
Built during the Middle Ages, this fortified residence incorporated water-filled moats as a primary defense system against potential invaders in the Bavarian region.
The castle represents the engineering methods of medieval German builders who integrated water management systems into defensive architecture.
Visitors can reach the castle by following the main road through Höchheim, with parking spaces available near the entrance gates.
The castle's water system maintains its original medieval configuration, with stone bridges connecting different sections across the moats.
