Lehrbach Castle, Medieval ruins in Lehrbach, Germany.
The castle ruins rise across three floors and display an entrance area, sections of surrounding wall, and palace elements including a portal and fireplace.
Built around 1180, the castle became a fief of the von Lehrbach family in 1349 before its destruction during the Thirty Years War in the 17th century.
The ruins exhibit medieval architectural techniques, including decorative windows and a stepped gable characteristic of this period in Hesse.
Visitors can access the ruins located at Hauptstraße 41 in Kirtorf and examine the various preserved architectural structures of the medieval castle.
The castle stands at an elevation of 236 meters and retains evidence of a moat system that once surrounded the main structure.
