Burg Graurheindorf, Baroque castle in Graurheindorf, Germany.

The castle features a double-flight staircase leading to a two-winged portal entrance, with a rectangular structure crowned by a high hipped roof.

First documented in 1131 as part of the Cassius Foundation, the castle was destroyed in 1689 and rebuilt in 1755 under architect Michael Leveilly.

The castle represents the evolution of German defensive structures into residential buildings, reflecting changing social structures in North Rhine-Westphalia.

The monument stands at coordinates 50.760799, 7.077343 in Bonn's district of Graurheindorf, with regular public transportation connections from the city center.

An octagonal tower-like lantern sits atop the building, distinguishing it from other baroque structures in the region.
