Bischofstein Castle is a spur castle on the western bank of the Moselle between Moselkern and Hatzenport in the district of Lasserg, a district of Münstermaifeld. The municipality of Burgen is located directly opposite on the other side of the Moselle. Destroyed by French troops in 1689, it was rebuilt in the 1930s as a holiday home. Since 1954 it has housed a school hostel. The most characteristic identifying feature of the castle is a strip of white plaster about halfway up the keep.
