Built
11th century

Bourscheid Castle stands majestically some 150 metres above the River Sure and it is enclosed by a circular wall with 11 watchtowers. The medieval castle is located on a site with archeological evidence of structures dating back to Roman times.
The castle appears to have been built around the year 1000 on earlier foundations and it was extended on several occasions. As a result of restoration work, the castle is now fully accessible to visitors, but remains a predominately open-air ruin.
