About Wartleiten Castle

The burgstall of Wartleiten Castle (German: Burgstall Wartleiten) is the site of a levelled, medieval hill castle situated at a height of 410 m above sea level (NHN) on the Wartleitenberg, about 600 metres southeast of the church in Streitberg, a village in the market municipality of Wiesenttal in the county of Forchheim in the south German state of Bavaria. No above-ground ruins of the old castle have survived apart from the remains of the bergfried or fighting tower.
