Dransdorfer Burg, Medieval castle in Dransdorf district, Bonn, Germany.

The castle complex features a main building with a hipped roof, constructed from brick materials, and includes a historic chapel on its grounds.

The original castle was built around 1139 for Cuno von Travinstorp, a serviceman of the Archbishopric of Cologne, and underwent reconstruction in 1742.

The municipal music school occupies the castle since 1973, transforming this historical structure into an educational and performance center for local musicians.

Located on Siemensstrasse near the Kettelerschule and St. Antonius Church, the castle is accessible through the Dransdorf An der Dransdorfer Burg station.

After French forces burned the castle in 1695 during the War of the Palatine Succession, Franz von Groote rebuilt it following damage from a lightning strike.
