Burg Hohenstein, Castle ruin in Dietingen, Germany.
The stone castle remains stand high above the surrounding landscape, featuring walls, towers, and foundations dating from medieval construction periods.
The castle emerged during the Hohenstaufen-Guelph power struggles and received its first documentation mention in historical records from 1202.
The fortress represents the architectural methods of medieval German defensive structures with its strategic position and multi-level construction approach.
Visitors can access the castle ruins through marked hiking paths that lead from the Dietingen village center to the elevated location.
The remaining structures show the specific building techniques of using local limestone blocks, cut precisely to create strong defensive positions.
