The Edenburg , also called Jestetten Castle and the Jestetten Tower , is an abandoned hilltop castle on a hill at the site of the cemetery on the outskirts of Jestetten in the district of Waldshut ( Baden-Württemberg ).
The castle was already gone in the 15th century. The Loretto Chapel was built on the foundations of the residential tower in 1668 . An information board still indicates the former castle complex.
