Schelmenburg, Medieval château in Bergen-Enkheim, Germany
The Schelmenburg features a baroque water castle built on the foundation walls of a former core castle, displaying traditional German architectural elements.
The medieval water castle, dated from 1194, served as the ancestral home of the Schelme von Bergen family who were imperial vassals.
The castle grounds maintain their connection to local heritage through a sculpture of the Schelm von Enkheim positioned at the entrance.
Located at Marktstrasse 13 in Frankfurt am Main, the castle remains accessible to visitors interested in exploring German medieval architecture.
The existing water castle structure, constructed in 1700, incorporates elements from a ministerial castle dating back to the Staufer period.
