Castle Berg, Medieval hillfort in Berg district, Stuttgart, Germany.

The water castle foundations stand 210 meters above sea level in the Nesenbach valley, within the grounds of Berg mineral spa complex.

The Lords von Berg constructed this fortification during the 12th century, with the structure meeting its destruction in 1287 during regional conflicts.

The excavated foundations reveal a residence tower measuring 10.5 meters on each side, demonstrating medieval German defensive architecture and nobility living patterns.

Modern visitors can examine the castle foundations, which were discovered in 1856 during the construction of spring water bathhouses.

The castle walls reached three meters in thickness, indicating substantial defensive capabilities for a structure of its period.
