The Tower Hill Ludwigsstadt is an Outbound high medieval motte (Motte) in the "Black Mountain" in the village Oberneuhüttendorf , Ludwig town in the district of Kronach in Bavaria .

The house of the Seigerhütte is depicted in the Nuremberg Atlas by Paulus Pfinzing (1588) as a tower-like building with a moat. It is therefore assumed that it was preceded by a tower mound. Nothing has survived from the former moth enclosure.
