Neuravensburg

Neuravensburg, Medieval castle ruins in Wangen im Allgäu, Germany

Neuravensburg is a castle ruin whose surviving keep stands at 564 metres on a drumlin ridge above the Upper Argen valley. The keep has an internal stair and an observation platform, and the foundation walls of the Palas, the castle's main hall, remain beside it.

The counts of Argengau built this castle in the late 12th century to command the surrounding lands. After damage during the Peasants' War in 1525, it was rebuilt in the early 17th century.

The castle takes its name from the Reichsministerialen von Ravensburg, who held the lordship here in the 13th century. Since 1987 the Burg- und Heimatverein Neuravensburg has cared for the ruins and researched their history. The keep still serves as the landmark of Neuravensburg.

Access is by way of the Hagmühleweg path, and you can climb the keep's internal stairs to the top. The elevated position offers wide views across the surrounding landscape and valley below.

The keep is the only surviving tower of a castle sold for demolition in 1836 and partly torn down between 1837 and 1845; its ruined walls were shored up in 1913 and again in 1962. The town of Wangen bought the ruin in 1992 and had further repairs carried out in 1995–1996.
