Burg Löffelstelz, Medieval castle ruin in Mühlacker, Germany
The castle remains include a preserved curtain wall, gate system, and neck ditch positioned on a rock face above the Enz River valley.
Constructed around 1180 and expanded by 1220, the castle changed ownership from the lords of Dürrmenz to Maulbronn Monastery in 1482.
The structure represents a shield wall castle design without a keep, reflecting regional military architecture from the late 12th century.
Visitors can access the castle ruins from April to October on Sundays and public holidays between 14:00 and 17:00 through guided tours.
Archaeological excavations between 2004 and 2007 revealed previously unknown cellars beneath the castle structure, now accessible during tours.
