オーバーフランケンのミヒェラウの洞窟・トップ20

The former moated castle, with its almost square floor plan measuring approximately 70 by 60 meters, is built on 190 cm thick outer foundation and ground floor walls and consists of a total of five floors. Two round towers rise at the northern corners of the building, their conical roofs slightly projecting above the hipped roof of the main building, thus lending the property a defensive character.

In any case, it's a huge building. More defiant than beautiful.

There is a warning about dogs running loose 😭

Worth a visit even without access to the castle;

It is privately owned so unfortunately you can only get a glimpse of it through the gate.

The castle is well hidden behind a wall. You can only catch a glimpse of it through the open gate.

Very interesting castle. Construction more like in England
