Burghaus Castle, Bavaria, Germany -- Given its easily defended location, this innermost area has been habitated since at least the bronze age. During the 1st & 2nd centuries, Celts lived here as Rome's power did not extend this far. Medieval construction started around 1180 by the first Duke of Bavaria, Otto I. But most of what we see here was the work of the three "rich" Bavarian Dukes culminating with Georg (1479-1503).
