Ruine Bebenburg, Medieval castle ruin in Rot am See, Germany.
The remains of Bebenburg Castle include a 6-meter-high tower base measuring 7.5 meters on each side, situated on a mountain spur at 426 meters elevation.
The castle's first documented mention dates to 1140, associated with Wolfram I von Bebenburg, who constructed it shortly before this date as a watchtower fortress.
This fortification represents regional castle architecture from the Hohenstaufen period, located in an area of Württemberg known for numerous medieval structures.
The castle ruins stand at the western edge of Bemberg village, near the junction where Blaubach stream flows into the Brettach river.
The fortress protection consisted of a circular wall, steep terrain, and a neck moat, demonstrating medieval defensive engineering common to hilltop castles.
