Early German tower hill, built around 1310. The building cannot be entered as it is in danger of collapsing. You can look inside through the old gate openings.

The Pomeranian castle was built in 1330 on the border with Mecklenburg. Built on an artificial hill with an imposing fieldstone base measuring 11.6 x 9.8 m, the Fangelturm was surrounded by moats. Over the centuries, the Fangelturm was a defensive, residential and prison tower. Near a ford through the border river Trebel, the Fangelturm served to secure and defend the border with Mecklenburg. Today the Fangelturm is located in the publicly accessible park of the estate in Nehringen.

This fortified tower, situated on an artificial hill with a fieldstone base and brick superstructure, served to secure a ford across the Trebel River and later as a residential and prison tower. It is the oldest surviving structure in Nehringen and a remnant of a former castle complex.
