The Postal Stadel is a Outbound Spur castle on a small 380  m above sea level. NN Spornkuppe, the Schlossberg, in the hamlet of Stadel in the district of Karlstein of the market Regenstauf in the Upper Palatinate district of Regensburg in Bavaria . The castle lies at the end of the Stadelmühlbach at the intersection of several old paths; therefore it can be assumed that the earlier castle was used to monitor these paths.

history

Only a few reliable data are known of the hill fort, which was probably built in the 13th century and mentioned in 1342. The Veste zu dem Stadel is mentioned in two documents dated August 23, 1342, in which a Wernt der Stor ze dem Stadel , a member of the knight family of the Stör , hired himself out to Bishop Heinrich von Regensburg . The place itself is first mentioned as Stadil in 1249 in a document from the Walderbach monastery . In 1398 the festival was given to Jörg Grimoald Uttenhofer or his cousin Wolfhart was entrusted to Uttenhofer. In 1423 the festivities came as a monastery loan to Peter Kuttenauer and Rupert von Freudenberg. In 1495 a Wilhelm von Altham zum Stadelstein is named who is said to have bought Gut and Sölde Stadel from the monastery. From this Jobst Tandorfer bought the property in 1504; the Tandorfer are also mentioned as owners in 1544 after several changes of ownership. The Tandorf family also owned the Forstenberg and Karlstein court brands at that time ; these three properties passed on to the same owners until the late 18th century. Of these, only Karlstein was turned into a castle, which caused the decline of the other two castles. War -related destruction in the Thirty Years' War can be ruled out.

description

What has been preserved is a short section of the wall of a building that stands on the edge of a step, presumably the remainder of a sunk trench with a wall in front. As can be seen on the map by Philipp Apian from 1568, the complex originally consisted of a tower and a high house with a wall in front; the current slope would therefore be due to a rampart or a kennel wall in the direction of the Regental. The moat on the west side was sacrificed for a quarry. Today's Burgstall shows only small remains of the wall and is a ground monument .
