Auelsburg stands in Euskirchen (Kreis Euskirchen), in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.
The Auelsburg was once a moated manor in Euskirchen, of which nothing remains today. It consisted of a simple rectangular enclosure fed by the waters of the Veybach stream, surrounding a noble residence that had no real defensive purpose. It was called a Burg mainly because of its watery setting and its ownership by a noble family. Since the 1990s, the site has been home to a public park with a playground and a skatepark.
What to know
- No visible structure of the former Burg remains, as it had already vanished by the 18th century.
- The site today lies within an urban park with a playground and skatepark, between the Basingstoker Ring and Georgstraße.
- A visit therefore concerns a public green space in Euskirchen rather than an actual monument.
- No protection status, opening hours or fees exist, since there is no longer a building to visit.
