Burg Tittmoning, Medieval castle in Tittmoning, Germany
Burg Tittmoning is a castle on a hilltop beside a river gorge in Bavaria, featuring thick stone walls and multiple courtyards. The buildings display medieval architecture with narrow passages and rooms that now function as museum spaces.
Archbishop Eberhard II of Salzburg built the castle in 1234 to control the neighboring town of Burghausen. The structure kept its strategic role for several centuries afterward.
The castle houses the Museum Rupertiwinkel, where visitors can see traditional clothing, handcrafted items, and religious artwork from the region. The displays show how people once lived and worked in this area.
Access is available from May through October, with guided tours offered at certain times. The site sits on a hilltop, so expect stairs and slopes when moving around.
The castle holds Bavaria's largest collection of rifle targets, with the oldest pieces from 1600. It also features a specialized museum about tanning, displaying the craft techniques of this once-common trade.
