Burg Rundeck, Medieval castle ruins in Kinding, Germany

The oval-shaped fortification spans 40 meters in diameter and features limestone walls reaching heights of six meters with three concentric moats.

Built in 1129 by the Herren von Heideck, the castle was reconstructed in 1381 under the name Stossenberg before passing to the bishopric of Eichstätt.

The castle forms part of the Kindinger Burgenweg, a heritage trail developed with historians to present regional medieval architecture.

Visitors can reach the ruins through a forest path from the east, with parking spaces available along the route to the archaeological site.

The castle contained a defensive gate tower in its southeastern section, marking the sole entry point through the triple moat system.
