Burg Neudahn stands in Dahn (Landkreis Südwestpfalz), in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. Recorded dating: 13th century. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
Neudahn Castle stands as a ruin above the town of Dahn, in the Südwestpfalz district. Built in the first half of the 13th century, it was destroyed several times before being adapted in the early 16th century to the military needs of that era. Its outline is still dominated by a tall twin gun tower from that period and by a separate, wedge-shaped bastion set apart from the main structure. The site is listed as a Kulturdenkmal in Rhineland-Palatinate.
