Burg Lindenfels, Medieval castle ruins in Lindenfels, Germany.
The stone walls and towers of Burg Lindenfels rise from a hilltop location, overlooking the town and valleys of the Odenwald region.
Originally constructed around 1080 as Slirburc, the castle expanded significantly during the 15th century when its Romanesque core transformed into a substantial fortress.
The castle grounds serve as a venue for regional celebrations and historical reenactments, connecting present-day residents with medieval German heritage.
Visitors can access the castle ruins free of charge, with guided tours available from March through October as part of the Historical City Tour.
The fortress remained largely intact through multiple military conflicts until the 18th century, when local residents began using it as a stone quarry.
