Wallmersbach tower hill

The Tower Hill Wallmersbach is an Outbound medieval moated castle from the type of a motte (moth) on trout stream in Wallmersbach (Wallmersbach 34), a modern suburb of Uffenheim in the district of Neustadt an der Aisch-Bad Windsheim in Bavaria .

Little has been preserved of the former moth system , which was demolished before 1856. The castle stable with the remains of a moat is built over by a residential house on which there is a coat of arms of the von Enheim family, who owned the castle until the middle of the 17th century.
