To make a day of it

Feller Maximiner Burg stands in Fell (Landkreis Trier-Saarburg), in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. No visits are on record for this building.

The Feller Maximiner Burg sits within the village of Oberfell, part of the municipality of Fell. It was built by the Abbey of St. Maximin in Trier as the seat of the lordship of Fell, a jurisdiction covering numerous surrounding villages. After rebuilding in 1783 and conversion into dwellings following a sale by auction in 1804, what remains today are sections of the enclosure wall, a barrel-vaulted cellar and a baroque gateway with classical pilaster work in sandstone.

What to know

  • The site lies within a residential area, at Burgstraße in Oberfell, and the buildings are now private dwellings.
  • Only exterior remains of the former fortified complex survive, visible from the street.
  • The baroque sandstone gateway and a section of the enclosure wall make up most of what can be seen today.
  • No information on opening hours, fees or organised tours is available, as the interior is not open to the public.
