Ehrenberg Castle, Medieval castle ruins in Reutte, Austria.
The stone fortification stands at 1100 meters altitude on a rocky peak, overlooking the valley with its four distinct defense structures and walls.
Built in 1290 under Count Meinhard II of Görz-Tirol, the castle controlled trade routes through the Alps and served as a strategic military checkpoint.
The castle complex includes an educational museum presenting medieval artifacts, weapons, and exhibits about daily life in the fortress during different centuries.
The castle opens from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM in summer and 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM in winter, with an inclined elevator providing access.
A 406-meter suspension bridge connects the castle grounds across the valley, offering views of all four fortification structures in the complex.
