Burg Stammeln, Medieval castle in Elsdorf, Germany.

The castle features two strong corner towers, with a round one at the western edge and a square tower with cross vaults at the southern corner.

First documented in 1460 in the Jülich Knights Register, the castle belonged to Wilhelm Schilling von Gustorf, who served as a vassal to the Duke of Jülich.

The street-facing facade displays Northern German Brick Gothic architecture with detailed elements including windows, rosettes, and stepped gables.

The castle grounds currently operate as an equestrian facility with riding arenas, stables, and a 1.5-kilometer training trail around the property.

The barrel-vaulted cellar preserves historical elements, including stone remnants of an ancient water system and original storage rooms.
