Burg Honberg, Medieval castle ruins in Tuttlingen, Germany

The stone remains of Burg Honberg stand on a hill at 739 meters above sea level, overlooking the Danube Valley and offering views of the Black Forest.

Count Eberhard constructed this fortress between 1460 and 1470, which became one of the most important defensive structures in Württemberg during the late Middle Ages.

The castle grounds transform into an entertainment venue during the Honberg Summer festival, featuring musical performances in a large round tent from early to late July.

The castle site maintains limited wheelchair accessibility, and visitors can reach the location through marked pathways leading up from the town of Tuttlingen.

After the city fire of 1803, residents repurposed many stones from the castle ruins to rebuild Tuttlingen, connecting the structure directly to the city's reconstruction.
