Schloss Bübingen, Medieval château ruins in Perl, Saarland, Germany.
Schloss Bübingen is a castle ruin in Saarland that originated from a former water castle and still displays wall sections with distinctive structures. The remaining foundations and wall remnants show how the original buildings were arranged.
The castle was developed in the 1330s by a Luxembourg official from an older manor house. In 1668 it was heavily damaged by French troops and later partially rebuilt.
The ruins mark the former stronghold of a noble family and still serve as a landmark in the local landscape, representing the region's feudal past.
The ruin is privately owned and a visit requires advance permission from the owners. It is advisable to contact the property holders before planning a visit.
The castle featured a sophisticated water system that was advanced for its time and supported its defenses. This system made the site a technically ambitious fortification for its era.
