Castle Hiltpoltstein is in the core of a high medieval Adel castle from the 11th or 12th century, which stands in the center of the market Hiltpoltstein in the Upper Franconian district of Forchheim (Bavaria). The current shape of the three-winged complex dates back to the renewal of the late 16th century.
