Burg Goddelsheim was once a moated castle, of which only scattered remains survive today in the village of Goddelsheim, now part of Lichtenfels in Hesse.

The site recalls the near six centuries during which the von Gaugreben family held the estate, their coat of arms still set above the Gothic entrance.

What to know

Only a gateway, a vaulted cellar and a section of wall remain of the castle, so there is no complete building to tour.

The cellar was restored in 1997 through the efforts of a local heritage association, with support from the town and the state of Hesse.
No opening hours or admission fees apply, as the remains stand freely accessible within the village.
