Harburg Castle, Medieval fortress in Harburg, Germany
The castle extends across multiple courtyards and features a 70-meter high keep with defensive walls overlooking the Wörnitz River valley.
Built in the 11th century by the House of Hohenstaufen, the castle served as a strategic point to control trade routes through southern Germany.
The castle contains exhibits of medieval weapons, armor collections, and period furniture that represent the lifestyle of German nobility through centuries.
The castle opens daily from March to November between 10:00 and 17:00, with guided tours available in German and English for 3.50 euros.
The castle's 129-meter deep medieval well required inhabitants to spend nearly an hour drawing water during the medieval period.
