Burg Rödelheim, Medieval castle ruins in Rödelheim district, Frankfurt, Germany
The castle site includes former foundations where two corner towers and a neoclassical building once stood at the intersection of multiple trading routes.
The original structure, first documented in 1276 as a castrum, underwent transformation into a palace under the ownership of Counts of Solms-Rödelheim until 1806.
The castle grounds represented a center of military and administrative power, marking the territorial control between Frankfurt and neighboring regions.
Visitors can find a bronze model representation of the former castle structure, installed by the local history association in 2008.
The castle's complete destruction during World War II bombings in 1944 led to its transformation into a public park space.
