Burg Falkenfels, Medieval castle in Falkenfels, Germany
The castle stands on a steep rock formation at 507 meters above sea level in the Straubing-Bogen district of Lower Bavaria.
The Counts of Bogen built the fortress around 1100, followed by the Knights of Hohenfels in 1232 and the Falkensteiner family in 1400.
The baroque St. Josef castle chapel, constructed in the 17th century on medieval foundations, contains tombstones of former castle lords.
The castle tower from the 13th century provides views across the region and remains accessible through the northern fortification walls.
The castle housed a brewery operated by the Lang family from 1821 to 1934, before being transformed into a hotel and restaurant in 1951.
