Wasserburg Redinghoven, Medieval water castle in Friesheim, Erftstadt, Germany.

The red-brown brick castle features connected moats, traditional gabled designs, and historic window patterns across its multiple structural components.

First documented in 1399, the estate underwent numerous ownership changes, including the von Hoheneck family's acquisition through marriage in the late 16th century.

The castle's architecture demonstrates the defensive and residential practices of medieval German nobility through its drawbridge remnants and vaulted interior rooms.

The property operates a farm shop offering locally sourced products, including geese, guinea fowls, and ducks raised by the Wolfgarten family.

Nine fortified sites surrounding Redinghoven were documented in an 1810 cadastral map, revealing the area's extensive defensive network.
