Burg Parsberg, Medieval castle and archaeological site in Parsberg, Germany.
The stone fortress stands on an elevated position above the town, featuring defensive walls, residential quarters, and multiple architectural elements from different periods.
The original structure from the 13th century was destroyed during the Thirty Years' War by Swedish forces, leading to its reconstruction and completion in 1648.
The Folk and Ethnographic Museum within the castle walls presents exhibits about regional traditions, daily life practices, and historical artifacts from the Upper Palatinate.
Visitors can reach the castle through marked hiking trails, with the nearest train station located in Parsberg offering regular connections to major Bavarian cities.
The castle grounds connect to a 7-kilometer cave trail leading from King Otto Cave to the St. Wolfgang Pilgrimage Church, combining historical and natural attractions.
