Burg Bönnigheim, Medieval castle in Bönnigheim, Germany.

The rectangular castle complex stands in the northeastern corner of the city fortifications, featuring a multi-story residential building with a staircase tower.

Built in the 12th century, the castle suffered destruction during the Peasants' War of 1525 and underwent reconstruction in 1546 under shared ownership.

The castle structure reflects medieval German architecture through its remaining features, including different window fronts and corbels on the southern gable.

The castle grounds include a parking area, and visitors can explore the exterior and courtyard while observing the last remaining building with its round tower.

The castle tower contains a bell from 1359, originally from the Cyriakuskirche, which was installed when the round tower received its conical roof in 1898.
