Burg Polle, Castle ruin in Polle, Germany

The fortress structure stands on an elevated position along the Weser River, featuring remaining walls and a gate from medieval construction techniques.

Originally constructed in the 13th century, the castle met its destruction during the Thirty Years' War when Swedish troops laid waste to the fortification.

The castle ruins maintain connections to regional folklore as a setting for the Cinderella tale and the historical residence of Count Everstein.

Visitors can access the castle ruins from April through October, with guided tours available through advance reservations at the local tourism office.

The castle ruins provide observation points over the Weser River valley, integrating medieval architectural elements with the natural landscape of Lower Saxony.
