Burg Hahnenkamm, Medieval castle ruins in Bissingen an der Teck, Germany.

The stone remains of Burg Hahnenkamm stand at 606 meters above sea level, featuring sections of reconstructed perimeter walls and foundation structures.

Built between 1250 and 1280 by the Dukes of Teck, the fortress served as one of several satellite castles protecting the main ducal stronghold.

The castle architecture incorporates rubble stone and ashlar masonry techniques, reflecting the traditional building methods of medieval German fortifications.

The castle ruins are accessible to visitors who can reach the site by following marked hiking trails through the surrounding natural landscape.

The fortress changed ownership from the House of Habsburg to the Counts of Württemberg in 1326, marking a significant shift in regional power dynamics.
