The so-called Burg Odendorf is a castle house in Odendorf , a district of the municipality of Swisttal in the Rhein-Sieg district in the south of North Rhine-Westphalia , which was built in 1678. The building at Orbachstrasse 24 is a protected architectural monument .

Of the former water-fenced courtyard, only the castle house remains today. The almost square brick building is covered by a tent roof. At the rear you can reach the baroque portal , which is provided with a skylight , via an outside staircase . The window frames are adorned with ears .

On the street side there are gable gateways to the right and left of the house in the courtyard wall.
