Münzenberg, Cultural heritage monument in Quedlinburg, Germany
The Münzenberg Castle ruin stands on an elevated position in Quedlinburg, featuring two round defensive towers and remaining medieval stone walls from its construction period.
The castle dates back to the 12th century when Kuno I, chamberlain of Emperor Frederick II, established this fortification overlooking the surrounding territories.
The Münzenberg area includes a statue commemorating local musicians in the Market Place, representing the musical traditions of Quedlinburg through generations.
Visitors can access the castle ruins throughout the year and explore the remaining structures while learning about medieval construction techniques through informative panels.
The castle features an uncommon architectural element of dual round defensive towers, setting it apart from other regional fortifications of that period.
