Schloss Burg (also Schloss Burg on the Wupper) is a reconstructed from the late 19th century hill castle in the Solingen district of Burg an der Wupper. The plant was since the 12th century, the ancestral castle of the Counts and later Dukes of Berg and is now the landmark of the Bergisches Land. At the same time, it is one of the largest castles in West Germany and the largest reconstructed castle in North Rhine-Westphalia.
