Hardtburg, Medieval castle ruin in Euskirchen, Germany
The remains of Hardtburg include a preserved keep, outer castle, and ring walls situated on the heights of Stotzheim Forest.
First documented in 1166, the castle's central structure deteriorated into ruins during the 18th century while the outer bailey remained intact.
The castle grounds serve as a venue for medieval historical events that highlight the regional heritage of North Rhine-Westphalia.
Visitors can access the castle grounds through designated hiking paths and parking areas, with tower access restricted during spring and summer.
The castle structure functions as a seasonal bird sanctuary, providing nesting spaces in its tower during spring and summer months.
