Entersburg

Entersburg is a castle ruin in Hontheim with stone foundations and partially preserved walls still visible today. The remains show the typical layout of a medieval fortification built with solid stone construction.

The castle was built during a period when fortifications were needed to protect settlements and trade routes in this region. It belongs to the many defensive structures that shaped the valley over several centuries.

The name reflects the history of its former lords, and the site serves as a quiet reminder of how this region was once controlled by different rulers. Walking around the remains, visitors can sense how important this location was for the people who built and defended it.

The site is accessible via hiking trails and located in hilly landscape with views over the valley. No special preparations are needed, but sturdy shoes are recommended since the ground is uneven.

The foundation patterns are still clearly visible and show how stones were originally laid during construction. Experts can study here the building techniques of the period and understand how durable these structures were meant to be.
