    This imposing castle complex, located on a mountain spur above the village of Mürlenbach, goes back to a protective foundation of the Prüm Abbey. A thicket of medieval sagas and legends lets the castle appear in a mysterious light.

    The castle owes its name to Charlemagne's great-grandmother, Bertrada the Elder, who is said to have lived here with her son. Allegedly, Charlemagne is said to have even been born on Bertradaburg.
