        Runkel Castle is the ruin of a high medieval castle in the town of Runkel in the Limburg-Weilburg district in Hesse.
        The hilltop castle is around 150 m above sea level. NN and rises about 35 to 40 meters above the Lahn valley.
        The castle was first mentioned in 1159, but is probably older. It was built by the Lords of Runkel to secure the Lahn Bridge and was owned by Siegfried (I.) von Runkel in 1159.
