Burg Erolzheim was a spur castle that has since vanished, overlooking the Iller valley near Erolzheim in Baden-Württemberg. Only traces of ditches and earthworks remain from the original fortified site, set on a hilltop spur. On the same spot today stands the Bergkapelle, a pilgrimage chapel that also served as a hermitage and burial place for the baronial von Bernhard family. This is a site for those curious about layered history rather than visible medieval architecture.
