Burg Tieringen, Medieval castle ruins in Meßstetten, Germany
The castle site contains foundations of a residential tower and additional fortifications along the Rottweiler Way in Baden-Württemberg's Zollernalbkreis region.
The castle belonged to the Lords of Tieringen, who served as ministerials of the Counts of Hohenberg until its destruction in the 14th century.
The castle's location near the Lochen Pass made it instrumental in controlling the road between Rottweil and Hausen through militia soldiers from Tieringen.
The ruins can be reached via hiking paths, with plans underway to make the larger castle site at Rottweiler Way accessible to visitors.
Archaeological research has revealed multiple castle structures at the site, including a residential tower and separate fortification complexes.
