Ragnit Castle, Medieval castle ruin in Neman, Russia.
The brick castle remains stand along the Neman River, featuring Gothic architectural elements with a central watchtower reaching 25 meters in height.
The Teutonic Order constructed Ragnit Castle between 1397 and 1409 under Master Konrad Fellenstein as a defensive stronghold against Lithuanian territories.
The castle transformed from a military fortress to a law court and prison, reflecting the changing needs of the regional administration through centuries.
The castle ruins open for guided tours, allowing visitors to explore the remaining walls and structures while learning about medieval construction techniques.
The granite doorframe at the entrance contained an iron grate system, demonstrating advanced fortification methods used in medieval Baltic defensive structures.
