Burg Hardenberg, Medieval castle ruin on a rocky outcrop in Nörten-Hardenberg, Germany.
The castle structure contains two distinct sections, known as front house and back house, positioned on steep cliffs overlooking the surrounding landscape.
First documented in 1101 as 'Vestes Haus', the castle was established by the Archdiocese of Mainz to monitor two important trade routes in the region.
The Hardenberg family, who acquired the castle in 1357, maintained ownership through centuries and currently operates events and tours on the grounds.
Visitors can join guided tours every Sunday from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM, with registration required by 9:00 AM at the hotel reception.
A storm in 1698 caused partial collapse of the castle, leading the Vorderhaus residents to relocate to Göttingen while maintaining the structure as a heritage site.
