Nideggen Castle, Medieval castle museum in Nideggen, Germany.
The Nideggen Castle houses a museum across eight rooms within its tower, displaying medieval artifacts, weapons, and regional castle models.
Construction of the castle began in 1177 under Count William II as a strategic fortification against the archbishops of Cologne's territorial interests.
The museum exhibits demonstrate medieval daily life, including aspects of chivalry, economic systems, and the societal structure of the Holy Roman Empire.
The castle museum operates Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 to 17:00, with final admission at 16:30, located at Kirchgasse 10 in Nideggen.
The castle's cellar contains a dungeon where two archbishops of Cologne were imprisoned during medieval territorial conflicts.
