Schloss Königsbrück, Medieval water castle in Neuenkirchen, Melle, Germany
The remaining wing of Schloss Königsbrück extends 45 meters in length across three floors, featuring a house passage and a southern gable.
The castle first appeared in records in 1063 when Bishop Friedrich I of Münster received it as a gift from King Henry IV.
The building combines architectural elements from different periods, including a medieval stone structure with a vaulted cellar and central pillar.
The castle stands near the Warmenau River, which forms the border between Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia.
A 1.5-kilometer-long water supply system made from hollowed tree trunks once provided water to the castle complex.
