Keseburg, Medieval castle ruin in Ederbringhausen, Germany
The stone remains of Keseburg stand on a hilltop overlooking the Eder Valley, featuring remnants of defensive walls and a tower base.
Built around 1144 by the Vogts of Keseberg, the castle was destroyed in 1277 by Landgrave Heinrich I after conflicts with local nobles.
The castle ruins represent medieval German defensive architecture and serve as a reminder of feudal power structures in Hesse region.
Visitors can reach the site by parking at Burg Hessenstein and following a one-hour walking trail through the surrounding woodland.
The castle foundation contains a remaining tower stump with a bench inside its walls, offering views across the Orke and Eder valleys.
