Burg Rosenegg, Medieval castle in Bürs, Austria.

The five-story residential tower and remaining foundation walls of Burg Rosenegg stand on a rocky outcrop called Schass, overlooking the Vorarlberg region.

Originally constructed in the mid-13th century by the Counts of Werdenberg, the castle experienced destruction during the Appenzell War of 1405 and underwent reconstruction in 1898.

The castle received its current name Rosenegg in the 19th century, replacing its original designation 'vesti zu Burs' which reflected the local naming traditions.

While the privately owned castle interior remains closed to visitors, a circular trail called Rundweg Biotop Schloss Rosenegg provides access to view the exterior structure.

The castle foundation rests upon consolidated gravel deposits from the Alvier stream, known as Bürser Konglomerat, forming a distinctive geological feature in the region.
