Burg Pützfeld stands in Kesseling (Landkreis Ahrweiler), in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.

Burg Pützfeld was a medieval fortified house standing in the valley floor at the western entrance to the village of Pützfeld, within the municipality of Kesseling. First recorded in 1222, it served as the seat of the knights of Pützfeld, later passing to the von Friemersdorf family, known as von Pützfeld, in the 16th century. Sold for demolition in 1851, it survives only as a few wall fragments now built into a farmstead. It is therefore not a visitable monument in the usual sense, but a quiet trace embedded in the village's built fabric.

What to know

  • No standing building remains to visit, only a few wall fragments built into a private farmstead.
  • The site lies at the western entrance of the village of Pützfeld, in the Ahr valley.
