Burg Neuenberg, Medieval castle ruins in Lindlar, Germany

The remnants of Burg Neuenberg contain a hexagonal core fortification with an outer courtyard and two round towers reaching 8 meters in height.

Built in the 12th century for the Counts of Berg, the castle protected the border against the Counts of Mark until Swedish troops damaged it in 1632.

The castle ruins bear witness to medieval German military architecture through their preserved masonry work and defensive structure layout near Lindlar.

Visitors can reach the castle ruins through footpaths connecting to Lindlar, with information signs explaining the historical features throughout the site.

Near the castle stands the Zwergenloch, a seven-meter-long limestone and stalactite cave that adds geological interest to the historical site.
