Burg Megling stands in Gars am Inn (Landkreis Mühldorf am Inn), in Bavaria, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. No visits are on record for this building.

Burg Megling survives as the ruins of a former hilltop castle set high above the Inn valley near the hamlet of Stampfl, part of the village of Gars am Inn. Its old keep, a solid three-storey structure with a steep half-hipped roof, still stands and is also known as Schloss Stampfl or Stampflschlössl. Rough-hewn bossed stones remain visible, recalling the defensive strength of a site naturally shielded on three sides by steep slopes.

What to know

The site sits high above the Inn, roughly 200 metres up, so reaching it involves a climb.
Only the ruins and the converted former keep can be viewed from outside, with no known opening hours or fees.
The terrain is steep, with sharp drops on three sides of the site.
No details are available regarding accessibility, parking, or dogs.
