Limburg Castle, Medieval castle on Lahn River hill in Limburg an der Lahn, Germany.
The stone castle rises above the Lahn River with towers, fortified walls, and multiple buildings forming a strategic defensive complex.
Built in the early 13th century by the Counts of Nassau, the castle controlled vital trade routes along the Lahn River crossing point.
The castle structure combines Romanesque and Gothic architectural elements, reflecting different construction periods through its walls and decorative features.
Visitors can access guided tours of the castle grounds from Frankfurter Straße 47, learning about its architecture and defensive functions.
The castle received the Hessischer Denkmalschutzpreis in 2021 for excellence in heritage preservation and historical documentation efforts.
