Hünenburg, Medieval castle ruins in Bad Pyrmont, Germany.

The stone remains of Hünenburg castle stand on Königsberg hill, featuring a residential tower with defensive walls measuring 80 centimeters thick.

Archaeological excavations in 1910 uncovered artifacts from 1100 to late 12th century, including knives, horseshoes, nails, and sickles within the castle grounds.

The castle reconstruction in 1910 reflected the period's romantic interpretation of medieval architecture, incorporating elements based on discovered foundations.

Visitors can access the castle ruins via Oesbergstraße 33 in Bad Pyrmont's Oesdorf district, where parking facilities are available near the site.

The castle's residential tower contains preserved elements such as arrow slits, elevated entrance points, and interior hearth remains from medieval times.
