Burg am Backofen
Vöhl, Germany, Germany
Burg am Backofen is the ruin of an early medieval fortress from the 8th-century Franken-Sachsenkriege (Franco-Saxon Wars) on a mountain spur near Schmittlotheim in Vöhl, Waldeck-Frankenberg district, Hesse, Germany.
Without a formal historical name, its remnants—including a double defensive ditch—mark a strategic site along paths from Hagenstein hill, now part of local hiking trails showcasing Vöhl's rugged terrain and historical significance in the Edersee region's early defenses. Listed among Hesse's castles, it offers a glimpse into Carolingian-era fortifications amid the Naturpark Kellerwald-Edersee landscapes.
