At the heart of the western upper castle rises the Barbarossa Tower, a defensive and residential tower that once served as the lords' last refuge. Today, it houses two exhibitions on the history of the keep and the Kyffhäuser region's tradition of earthwork sculpture. Surrounded by partially preserved curtain walls, the foundations of the palace and kitchen building, and the historic Erfurt Gate, the world-famous deepest castle well in the world is located opposite the tower.

The castle well of the Kyffhäuser Monument is the deepest castle well in the world with a depth of 176 meters. It was driven into the rock between 1130 and 1170 and served to supply water to the castle residents. The water level remains constant at 9 meters, fed by seepage water. Modern camera movements allow visitors to look to the bottom of the well and gain a fascinating insight into medieval engineering. An absolute highlight of a visit to the Kyffhäuser Monument!

The well on the Kyffhäuser is the deepest castle well in the world. The depth is about three times the height of the memorial tower. The well pipe has a diameter of just over 2 meters. The well is fed by seepage water, so it is not groundwater. It is believed that the well was driven into the rock between 1130 and 1170. At that time it served to supply water to the castle residents. A recent analysis has confirmed that the sample taken was of the highest drinking water quality.
