The Postal Daim is an Outbound medieval hilltop castle in the district simplicity of the community Soyen in the district of Rosenheim in Bavaria . Your name is derived from Turm / Turn / Tain / Daim.

Originally there was a tower castle at the castle site , which was used to transmit messages from the Haag count castles to Hohenburg Castle . The transmission was done by visual signals . Since a direct visual contact from Haag to Hohenburg was not possible because a hill in between blocked the view, the tower castle Tain was built, with which the aforementioned hill was bypassed. Tain was manned by a tower keeper who took the messages and passed them on. The family of the Counts of Deym / Deyn probably emerged from the Türmer family.

The Burgstall castle site was flown over by the Bavarian State Office for Monument Protection on August 21, 1981 by Otto Braasch and photographed. The slide 1720–18 bears the archive number 7938/27. It shows the castle site with two castle mounds and unambiguous underground wall and building remains that are visible through the formation of shadows. To the south of the castle hill there are four residential buildings in a scattered position, this settlement is called Daim .
