Burgstall Stauf Hauptburg

The Burgstall Stauf or Staufenberg is the remains of an abandoned high medieval castle. It is located above Stauf, a district of Neumarkt in the Upper Palatinate, on the summit plateau of the Staufer Berg. Only a few historical data of the castle nobility from the late Middle Ages are known about the complex. No structure of the castle itself has been preserved, only a ring wall around the entire plateau and a mighty sectional ditch that divided the summit plateau can still be seen. However, this high medieval castle complex could possibly have been built on the site of an older fortification. Today, the former castle is listed as a ground monument D-3-6734-0038 "Medieval Castle Stable" by the Bavarian State Office for the Preservation of Monuments.
