In German-language castle literature, Bergfried (also Berchfrit, popularly also Burgfried; French: tour-beffroi, English: belfry, Spanish: torre del homenaje) refers to the uninhabited main tower (defensive tower) of a medieval castle, which has been widespread in Central Europe since the 12th century.

Quite a large castle ruin. At first it doesn't look like anything. But the area is bigger than you think.
