Burg Nebra, Medieval castle ruins in Nebra, Germany

The remains of Burg Nebra include a residential tower, chapel fragments, and wine cellar vaults situated on a hill at 148 meters above sea level.

The castle served as a residence for the Landgraves of Thuringia from its first mention in 1207 until 1247, when the Counts of Querfurt acquired it.

Archaeological excavations near the castle site reveal a settlement history extending from the Late Paleolithic period through medieval fortification development.

The castle ruins stand at coordinates 51.2854° N, 11.5759° E, making them accessible through standard navigation systems and local road networks.

Swedish troops occupied the fortress during the Thirty Years War, after which the structure gradually deteriorated into its current ruined state.
