Bodendenkmal in Wurmannsquick, #D-2-7643-0002 stands in Wurmannsquick (Landkreis Rottal-Inn), in Bavaria, Germany. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
The site registered as Bodendenkmal D-2-7643-0002 in Wurmannsquick marks the remains of a motte, an artificial mound that once carried a fortified tower. Nothing stands above ground today: only the shape of the land, a round platform ringed by a horseshoe-shaped ditch, still indicates where this medieval seat once stood. The place belonged to the Rogglfinger family, ministerial vassals of the Counts of Ortenburg, first recorded at the end of the twelfth century.
What to know
- No standing structure remains visible: only the shape of the mound and its surrounding ditch marks the former motte.
- The site lies in open countryside on the slope of the Schlossberg, near the Rogglfing stream.
- There are no opening hours, fees, or visitor facilities, as access is simply through the open landscape.
- A visit amounts to an archaeological walk rather than the exploration of a building.
