Hesperange Castle, Medieval castle ruins in Hesperange, Luxembourg.
The stone remains of Hesperange Castle stand on elevated ground above the town, featuring remnants of defensive walls and foundations.
The Lords of Rodenmacher constructed the castle in the early 13th century, which later faced destruction by Austrian troops in 1480 under Maximilian's orders.
The castle ruins represent the military architecture of medieval Luxembourg, reflecting the strategic importance of fortifications during the Middle Ages.
While the castle ruins maintain national monument status, they remain on private property and require advance permission for visits.
By 1820, seven residential houses were built within the castle grounds, incorporating parts of the medieval structure into their foundations.
