Burg Grumbach, Medieval castle in Grumbach, Germany.

The fortress consists of polygonal outer walls with remaining flanking towers and retains a deep moat surrounding the Gothic residential building with saddle roof.

The castle was established between 1147 and 1158 by Marquard von Grumbach, serving as a stronghold until Wilhelm von Grumbach's execution in 1567.

The Gothic residential building demonstrates the transformation of military structures into noble residences during the medieval period in Rhineland-Palatinate.

The castle remains under private ownership at Am Burggraben 11, and visitors need to observe posted signs regarding access restrictions.

The castle's cellars now host an annual Christmas market, connecting medieval architecture with present-day community celebrations.
