The ruins of the castle Glaadt is a ruin of the former castle complex in Jünkerath and was built in the 13th century.

In the Middle Ages Glaadt had an even greater importance than Jünkerath, the nearby hut settlement.

At the beginning of the 17th century, the Glaadt castle ruin was rebuilt as a hunting lodge after being destroyed by a lightning strike.

Very beautiful castle ruins in the middle of a residential area, so it may be difficult to see
