Burg Beutelsbach, Medieval castle in Weinstadt, Germany
The stone fortress stands on Kappelberg hill, featuring defensive walls that overlook the surrounding vineyards of the Rems Valley region.
Built around 1080, the castle served as the original seat of the House of Württemberg before they relocated to their new stronghold near Stuttgart.
The castle site contains the Museum Wiege Württembergs, which presents artifacts and exhibits about the origins of the Württemberg royal dynasty.
Visitors can explore the castle grounds and museum from Saturday through Sunday between 2:00 PM and 6:00 PM, with additional hours available upon request.
The castle grounds witnessed the start of the Poor Conrad peasant rebellion in 1514, which preceded the larger German Peasants War of 1525.
