Schloss Breidenstein, Medieval château in Breidenstein, Germany.
Schloss Breidenstein consists of two main sections: a lower castle built between 1712 and 1714, and an Art Nouveau villa added in 1910.
The castle's origins trace back to 1395 when Landgrave Hermann II of Hesse acquired the fortress, previously constructed by the Lords of Breidenbach.
The structure represents medieval German architecture with its half-timbered upper floor, four stories on the south side, and two visible floors on the hillside.
The property includes preserved sections of the original ring wall and tower foundations, offering visitors insights into medieval construction techniques.
The combination of a baroque castle, medieval ruins, and an Art Nouveau villa creates a multilayered architectural ensemble spanning different historical periods.
