Burg Dreieichenhain, Medieval castle ruins in Dreieichenhain, Germany.

The castle features a five-story residential tower surrounded by protective moats and ring walls built using local stone materials.

The castle was constructed around 1080 as a residence for the Reichsvögte administrators who managed imperial hunting grounds for the emperor.

The Dreieich Museum within the castle structure presents exhibitions about regional history and medieval life through artifacts and documents.

The castle grounds open daily from sunrise to sunset, with guided tours available through the Dreieichenhain Historical and Heritage Association.

The castle transformed into a Ganerbenburg in 1255, becoming a shared inheritance property among multiple families after its original dynasty ended.
