THE photo motif of the castle and one of the most beautiful stamp points of the Harz hiking badge.

The complex was first mentioned in a document in 1312 as "castrum Königshof", when Bishop Albrecht von Halberstadt bought the castle from the squire Heinrich von Botvelde. In 1324 it was mentioned again as "castrum Köningshof acqisivit", then the castle went quiet. In 1614 the only other mention was of the keep at Königshoffe, which from 1709 onwards was only referred to as Königsburg. By then the complex had already fallen into ruins. When Paul Höfer carried out extensive excavations between 1898 and 1901, he believed that he had found the long-sought Bodfeld palace. He published several articles about it. In 1931, thanks to advances in soil research, this was proven to be a mistake by Carl Schuchhardt and confirmed a little later by Paul Grimm, who determined that the finds, especially the ceramics, were no older than the 13th century. Although these research results from the 1930s have been widely recognized in scientific research, Königshütte still advertises the fact that the Königsburg is the Bodfeld hunting palace and one of the most historic places in the Harz.
