Bodendenkmal in Arnstorf, #D-2-7442-0032 stands in Arnstorf (Landkreis Rottal-Inn), in Bavaria, Germany. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

This site preserves the remains of a motte, an artificial mound that once carried a tower, located at Eiselstorf, a hamlet belonging to the municipality of Arnstorf. All that remains is an oval-shaped rise in the land, roughly 40 metres across, bordered on its southern side by a depression marking a former ditch. No structure can be seen today; the earthwork itself is the only surviving evidence of this vanished medieval fortification.
