The moth Rouleersburg , simply castle hill called, is a Outbound motte (Motte) in Hiesfelder break at Barmingholten in Wesel in North Rhine-Westphalia . This complex was very likely built in the 9th or 10th century at the latest.
The trapezoidal castle hill with a base area of 35 × 30 m and a height of 2.5 m was surrounded by an average 25 m wide moat . This had a depth of 80 cm. The moat was surrounded by a square rampart with rounded corners.
The ground monument was buried in the 1970s when the Wehofen waste dump was expanded .
