Schülzburg, Castle ruin near Anhausen, Germany.
Located on a rocky spur 30 meters above Lauter Valley, Schülzburg features three-story residential buildings with large window openings and stone walls.
Built around 1329 by Knight Walther von Stadion, the castle changed ownership multiple times before a fire destroyed it completely in February 1884.
The castle incorporates a chapel mentioned in 1508, reflecting the medieval integration of religious structures within military fortifications.
The ruins include remnants of drawbridge foundations, garden traces, and information panels explaining the architectural elements of the medieval fortress.
The castle maintained continuous habitation longer than any other fortress in Lauter Valley until its destruction by fire in 1884.
