Bollendorf Castle, Medieval castle in Bollendorf, Germany
The stone castle stands on a hill overlooking the Sauer River, featuring defensive walls and multiple towers that mark the landscape of Rhineland-Palatinate.
The structure served as a strategic stronghold during medieval times, protecting trade routes along the Sauer River between present-day Germany and Luxembourg.
This designated cultural heritage monument represents the architectural methods and defensive requirements of medieval German fortification systems.
Visitors can reach the castle by following marked hiking trails from Bollendorf's town center, with parking facilities available at the base of the hill.
The castle's position directly faces its Luxembourg counterpart across the Sauer River, creating a rare cross-border historical connection between the two nations.
