The castle Alfeld is an Outbound medieval hilltop castle approximate range Bierweg 11 in Alfeld in Nuremberg district land in Bavaria .

The castle, which was owned by the Lords of Alfeld until the 15th century, was first mentioned in 1286 with Konrad von Alfeld. Alfeld is no longer mentioned as a fortification as early as 1504.

The remains of the wall on a rock presumably originate from a wall arch that once spanned the crevice there.
