Ingolstadt tower hill

The Tower Hill Ingolstadt , also Kautz tower or castle Ingolstadt called, is a Outbound Turmhügelburg (Motte) near the Kauzenmühle , about 700 meters southwest of the church of Ingolstadt , a district of the market Giebelstadt in the district of Würzburg in Bavaria .

Nothing has survived from the former moth enclosure . The building and trench structure are only weakly visible in the terrain; a moat could probably be fed by two to three streams flowing past (Katzenbach, Wolfsgrund, Langenwiesenbach).
