Egglburg stands in Ebersberg (Landkreis Ebersberg), in Bavaria, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. No visits are on record for this building.

The Egglburg was an early medieval hilltop fortification built by the Counts of Ebersberg on the Kirchberg, between the hamlets of Hinteregglburg and Vorderegglburg. First recorded in 1080 as an oppidum, it later came under the lords of Egglburg during the 12th century. Nothing remains of the original fortified structure today, only the site itself, alongside the church of St. Michael, which once served as the castle's chapel. Visitors will find an archaeological location rather than standing castle walls.
