To make a day of it
Burgstall Angersbach stands in Angersbach (Vogelsbergkreis), in Hesse, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.
The Burgstall Angersbach marks the site of a small fortified residence that has since vanished, located at the centre of the village of Angersbach, part of the municipality of Wartenberg in Hesse. The local noble family of Angersbach is believed to have built it before 1232, later taking the name von Wartenberg once they erected the Burg Wartenberg. Nothing remains above ground today: the remaining wall and foundation traces lie beneath private houses built on the spot. This makes it a point of historical interest rather than a visitable monument.
