Ruine Randenburg, Medieval castle ruin in Schleitheim, Switzerland
The Randenburg ruin stands at 896 meters above sea level on a rock formation with steep cliffs on three sides near Schaffhausen.
Built around 1175 by Diethelm von Krenkingen, the castle served as the seat of the von Randenburg family until its abandonment in the 15th century.
The von Randenburg knights provided mayors for Schaffhausen from 1298 to 1376, governing the region as ministerials of Reichenau monastery.
Visitors can observe remaining sections of the moat on both eastern and western sides, along with small portions of the original castle walls.
The Schleitheimer Randenturm observation tower now occupies the exact location where the castle ruins remain, connecting past with present.
