Burg Stotel, Medieval castle ruins in Loxstedt, Germany
The castle features circular stone walls with a base width of 1.6 meters and a height of 1.7 meters near the Stoteler village church.
Archaeological excavations in 2013 revealed structures dating back to 1150-1160, with subsequent expansions during Count Gerbert von Stotel's reign from 1229 to 1267.
The name 'de Stoltenbroke' translates to 'the proud castle in wet land', reflecting its strategic position in the marshlands of Lower Saxony.
The castle foundations underwent preservation work in 2018, making the historical site accessible to visitors interested in medieval architecture.
The castle's existence remained unknown until 2006 when workers discovered ancient walls during electrical cable installation works.
