Burgstall Liebenau

The Postal Liebenau is an Outbound medieval motte (moth) about 400 meters southeast of the center of pride Roth, in the municipality of Pommersfelden in the district of Bamberg in Bavaria .

Liebenau Castle, which is only about 80 meters away from the Stolzenroth Castle , once belonged to the Lords of Liebenau. From 1385, the burgraves of Nuremberg owned parts of the complex. The castle was already destroyed in 1535, the last remains of it were removed in 1790.

From the former castle complex in the corridor in the Schlössleinswiesen , only the remains of the core hill have survived. This hill measures about 46 by 40 meters and is still 0.25 meters high. A ditch ran around it , which is only faintly noticeable today. It is between eleven and nine meters wide.

Today the Burgstall is registered as a floor monument D-4-6230-0010 "Late Middle Ages Burgstall" by the Bavarian State Office for Monument Preservation .
