Mülheim Castle, Medieval castle in Zülpich, Germany
The rectangular brick structure features high corner towers and walls reaching three meters in thickness, with spiral staircases connecting different levels.
The castle served as an outpost for the archbishops of Cologne against the County of Jülich during the late 14th century construction period.
The main gate displays two angled coats of arms, including one believed to represent Frederick of Saarwerden and the Archbishopric of Cologne.
The castle now functions as a tourist information bureau and houses the Zülpich History Society, offering visitors insights into regional heritage.
The western tower contained a dungeon, while other corner towers included residential spaces with fireplaces and private facilities for inhabitants.
