The first noble castles, like those on the Rittersturz rock, were built in the late Carolingian period in the 9th century AD, mostly as residential and defensive buildings. They were built on spurs as hilltop castles or on artificially constructed hills - usually surrounded by a moat - as lowland castles. In cities, castles often had the character of residential or defensive towers. Locations were often chosen that had already been used for the construction of fortifications in Celtic or late Roman times. Source: Text information board
