Englburg Castle - a photo on Flickriver

Englburg Castle

            Englburg Castle is located in the market town of Tittling in the Bavarian Forest, around 25 kilometres north of Passau. It is one of the three castles that give Dreiburgenland its name. 

The building is divided into the high castle, an east building (former well house), a south building and the patrimonial court building in the north. The two onion domes with attached lanterns and the ridge turret on top of the high castle give it its characteristic appearance. A round tower from the medieval fortifications still stands to the north.

The double summit of the Rachel can be seen on the left behind the old building.

Die Englburg liegt im Markt Tittling im Bayerischen Wald, etwa 25 Kilometer nördlich von Passau. Sie ist eine der drei Burgen, die dem Dreiburgenland seinen Namen geben. 

Das Bauwerk gliedert sich in das Hochschloss, einen Ostbau (ehemaliges Brunnenhaus) sowie einen Südbau und das Patrimonialgerichtsgebäude im Norden. Die beiden Zwiebelürme mit aufgesetzter Laterne sowie dem Hochschloss aufsitzendem Dachreiter geben ihm sein charakteristisches Äußeres. Im Norden steht noch ein Rundturm der mittelalterlichen Befestigungsanlage.

Links ist hinter dem alten Gebäude der Doppelgipfel des Rachel zu sehen.
