Burg Neuhewen, Medieval castle in Engen, Germany.

The stone fortification stands on elevated ground with defensive walls and towers that follow the natural topography of the surrounding landscape.

The architecture of Burg Neuhewen demonstrates the medieval building techniques with its stone masonry and structural elements from the 12th century.

The castle remains closed to visitors using wheelchairs as the terrain and internal structure present substantial mobility limitations.
