Burg Grimburg, Medieval castle in Grimburg, Germany
The stone walls and towers of Burg Grimburg rise 460 meters above sea level in the Hunsrück region of Rhineland-Palatinate.
The Archbishops of Trier established Burg Grimburg in 1190 as a provincial stronghold, which later received official town privileges in the 14th century.
The castle grounds contain historical chambers where legal proceedings and administrative meetings for forty Hochwald communities took place during medieval times.
Visitors can access Burg Grimburg from Easter Monday through October, with guided tours available for groups through the Hermeskeil Tourist Information Office.
The castle structure underwent partial reconstruction starting in 1978, transforming from abandoned ruins into an educational medieval complex for modern visitors.
