Forgotten History
Burg Reichenstein
Neckargemünd, Germany
Reichenstein Castle in Neckargemünd was an imperial castle that was probably built at the beginning of the 13th century. Together with other imperial castles in the lower Neckar area, it served to protect the imperial territory from the Wittelsbach territory around Heidelberg. The castle is only mentioned in documents from 1292 to 1355. It was owned by the Electors of the Palatinate from 1329 and then quickly lost its importance compared to the nearby mountain fortress of Dilsberg.
