Konradsburg, Hill castle and former monastery in Falkenstein/Harz, Germany.
The Konradsburg site encompasses extensive remains of a medieval complex situated on a hilltop, featuring a preserved crypt with five-aisled groined vaults and decorated columns.
The castle, first mentioned in 1021, protected imperial lands until 1120 when its owners relocated to build Falkenstein Castle three kilometers south of the site.
The transformation of Konradsburg into a monastery occurred as penance for Egeno II's involvement in the murder of Count Adalbert II of Ballenstedt around 1080.
The site functions as checkpoint 201 on the Harzer Wandernadel hiking network and includes a cafe for visitors exploring the medieval remains.
The monastery contains a medieval well house exceeding 45 meters in depth, demonstrating advanced engineering methods of religious communities in medieval Germany.
