To make a day of it

Burg Heimhof stands in Ursensollen (Landkreis Amberg-Sulzbach), in Bavaria, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. Recorded dating: 14th century. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Burg Heimhof sits on a rocky spur rising about 25 metres above the Hausen valley, just outside the village of Ursensollen. Built in the 14th century by the lords of Haimenhofen, it was extended with a Renaissance residential wing and later restored in the early 20th century after decades of decay. The complex combines a four-storey hall building, likely developed from an earlier residential tower, with hip-roofed ranges flanked by corner turrets. A rock-cut ditch, once crossed by a drawbridge, still separates the site from the land to the west.

  • No opening hours, fees or access details are given, since the interior is closed to the public.
