Bodendenkmal in Marklkofen, #D-2-7441-0090 stands in Marklkofen (Landkreis Dingolfing-Landau), in Bavaria, Germany. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

The Turmhügel Marklkofen marks the site of a former medieval motte, in Marklkofen, in the Landkreis Dingolfing-Landau, Bavaria. The mound that once carried the fortified tower has been completely levelled, so no elevation or masonry remains visible today. The area, close to the Vils river and the parish church of Mariä Himmelfahrt, is now an open meadow. It is therefore not a developed visitor site but an open-air archaeological location.

What to know

  • No structure remains visible on site, the area is simply an open meadow.
  • The location lies about 140 metres west of the parish church of Mariä Himmelfahrt.
  • A comparable site, the Burgstall Marklkofen II, lies 120 metres to the north.
  • There are no opening hours, fees, or visitor facilities for this site.
  • A visit amounts to viewing the field from outside, with no marked path or information panel mentioned.
