Burg Kirchzarten (Hochstauden) stands in Kirchzarten (Landkreis Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald), in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.

The Burg Kirchzarten, at the site known as Hochstauden, refers to the vanished remains of a medieval lowland fortification, likely a moated structure, northwest of the village of Kirchzarten. Nothing of the former stronghold remains visible above ground today; its outline can only be traced through aerial photography. Its history remains entirely unknown due to a lack of documentary evidence. A similar fortified site lies about 500 meters to the southeast, in the Hagenmatten area.

What to know

  • The former fortification can only be identified through aerial photography, not by walking the ground.
  • There is no information on opening hours, fees or access, as there is no visitor infrastructure.
  • A comparable fortified site lies nearby at Hagenmatten, about 500 meters to the southeast.
