Burg Dicke stands in Calw (Landkreis Calw), in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.

Burg Dicke, also known as the Dickener Schlössle, is a ruined hilltop castle on a rocky plateau near Stammheim, a district of Calw. Only a stump of a square tower and traces of a ditch remain, and the site is credited to the Truchsessen von Waldeck. Visitors reach it either from the Hof Dicke farm or from a car park in the Nagold valley, climbing the last stretch to the plateau via an iron and then a wooden ladder.

What to know

  • The site is located in Calw, in the Landkreis Calw, Baden-Württemberg.
  • Reaching the plateau requires climbing an iron ladder followed by a wooden one, so some agility is needed.
  • Only a tower stump and ditch remains survive, this is not a restored or visitor-fitted castle.
  • There are two possible starting points: the Hof Dicke farm or a car park in the Nagold valley.
  • There are no set opening hours or fees, as the site is freely accessible outdoors.
