The Koliburg is a ruined hilltop castle standing on a spur of the Katharinenberg above Endingen am Kaiserstuhl. Built around 1200 as a fief of the collegiate chapter of St. Margaret in Waldkirch, it belonged to the Koler von Endingen, a branch of the lords of Endingen. Destroyed once in 1278 and then razed in 1321 by the lords of Üsenberg with help from the citizens of Endingen during the Kaiserstuhl War, it was never rebuilt. Only scant wall remains and the surrounding ditches survive today.
