Burg Satzvey, Medieval moated castle in Mechernich, Germany.
The castle features defensive towers, a drawbridge, and stone walls surrounding an island formed by the Veybach stream.
The castle foundations date from 1396, when Heinrich von Krauthausen initiated construction of the current structure on earlier medieval ruins.
Throughout the year, the castle grounds host medieval tournaments, markets, and seasonal festivals that showcase regional traditions.
The castle courtyards remain open all year without entrance fees, while interior visits require guided tour participation.
The Hall of Bourbon Lilies contains burgundy tapestries decorated with golden fleurs-de-lis and accommodates 460 guests for events.
