Forgotten History
Burgstelle Wittgenstein
Wutha-Farnroda, Germany
Wittgenstein Castle is a derelict high medieval spur castle in Thuringia. The steep rock face of a Zechstein reef at 320 m above sea level in the Farnroda district of the Wutha-Farnroda municipality in the Wartburg district, 30 m above the Erbstromtal. NN offered natural protection for the construction of a small spur castle, whose primary purpose was initially to monitor the old road that crossed the valley close to the castle site. Of the Wittgenstein, only the wide crescent-shaped moat on the western edge of the mountain remains in the area.
