Burg Altenwied, Medieval castle in Neustadt (Wied), Germany.
The castle stretches 60 meters in length and features a pentagonal tower measuring 17 meters in height with a base of 15 by 9.5 meters.
Built around 1100, the castle served as a central point for the Middle Rhine possessions of the Counts of Bilstein during the medieval period.
The structure represents medieval German defensive architecture with its shield wall and strategic position on a narrow mountain spur.
The castle remains closed for interior visits, allowing only external viewing of its restored structures and architectural elements.
In 2003, local entrepreneur Jürgen Wirtgen acquired the castle and transformed the medieval residential buildings into a modern villa incorporating historical elements.
