Wasserburg Riedern stands in Eichenbühl (Landkreis Miltenberg), in Bavaria, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. No visits are on record for this building.

The Wasserburg Riedern lies in Eichenbühl, in the Landkreis Miltenberg, Bavaria. Once a moated stronghold fed by the Erf stream, it served for centuries as the seat of the noble von Riedern family, first recorded as a shared Ganerbenburg among several branches of the lineage in the 14th century. The original keep and tall ring walls no longer stand, but a timber-framed barn, an outbuilding and the present residential house, set on a sandstone basement, remain on the site. The property is privately owned today.
