Burg Rumburg, Medieval castle ruin in Kinding, Germany.

The stone remnants of Burg Rumburg rise 17 meters high on a steep ridge, featuring a substantial entrance gateway at its southern corner point.

The Lords of Absberg constructed Burg Rumburg in the mid-14th century, with the first written records dating back to 1361 during their regional control.

The castle name derives from the Middle High German word 'rone', indicating the presence of fallen trees in the surrounding landscape during medieval times.

Visitors can reach the archaeological site through Rumburgleite street, with the nearest train station located at Kinding Bahnhof, 1 kilometer from the ruins.

The castle contains a preserved chapel dedicated to Saint George positioned next to the main gate, reflecting the medieval integration of religious structures.
