Burg Tannenberg, Medieval castle in Nentershausen, Germany.

The stone walls of Burg Tannenberg rise above the Richelsdorfer Gebirge mountain range, featuring defensive towers and architectural elements from the 14th century.

Ludwig I of Baumbach constructed Burg Tannenberg around 1300, establishing it as a strategic fortification that remained in the Baumbach family's possession until 1360.

The castle grounds host the annual Burgfest festival, where local residents gather to celebrate regional traditions through music, food, and historical reenactments.

Visitors can access the castle ruins throughout the year, with guided tours available through the Friends of Tannenberg association focusing on medieval construction techniques.

Local villagers repurposed stones from the castle walls for their buildings, creating an architectural connection between the fortress and surrounding community structures.
