Burg Baldenau, Medieval castle ruins in Hundheim, Germany
The remains of Burg Baldenau include a 25-meter high keep, robust castle walls, inner courtyard pavement, and an 8-meter deep water well.
Archbishop Balduin of Luxembourg constructed Burg Baldenau between 1312 and 1324 to strengthen his control over the Trier region against the Counts of Sponheim.
The castle ruins became a filming location for notable German productions, including the movie Schinderhannes and Edgar Reitz's HEIMAT film series.
The castle grounds connect to the LandZeitTour dream loop and the third stage of the Hunsrück cycle route, offering multiple access options for visitors.
Burg Baldenau stands as the only moated castle in the Hunsrück region, situated in the upper Dhron valley between the villages of Hundheim and Hinzerath.
