Forgotten History

Burg Kleinvernich

Weilerswist, Germany

Kleinvernich Castle, also called Gürtzgensburg, is the remains of a moated castle on the Lommersumer Mühlengraben near the Erft in the Weilerswister district of Kleinvernich (Am Klarenhof) in the Euskirchen district in North Rhine-Westphalia. The Kleinvernich moated castle is still surrounded by a complete moat today and is used and inhabited as an agricultural property. Today the former castle complex, a so-called “court fortress” without any previous knightly status, appears as a four-winged courtyard complex. Old drawings from 1705 suggest that the castle had an outer bailey but the small half-timbered manor house had already fallen into disrepair.
