Burgstall Morsbach stands in Titting (Landkreis Eichstätt), in Bavaria, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. No visits are on record for this building.

Burgstall Morsbach marks the site of a former moated castle that no longer stands, located where the parish house of the village of Morsbach, part of the municipality of Titting, now sits. Nothing remains of a fortress in the usual sense: only possible remnants of foundation walls, perhaps incorporated into today's rectory, and a partly filled dry ditch hint at the medieval structure that once stood here. This is a destination for those drawn to archaeological traces in the landscape rather than standing architecture.

What to know

  • No visible structure remains of the original castle, only traces in the ground.
  • The site corresponds to the location of today's parish house in Morsbach, at Schlossstraße 14.
  • A dry ditch, partly filled in, still outlines the former fortified enclosure.
  • The site is listed as a Kulturdenkmal in Germany.
  • There are no opening hours, fees or visitor facilities, as this is an archaeological site within an inhabited village.
