The Haunting

Heidelberg Castle (Heidelberger Schloss) is described in the supplied sources as a ruin and a landmark of the city of Heidelberg. The castle is characterized in the Wikipedia excerpt as "among the most important Renaissance structures north of the Alps," and it appears in travel and guidebook material as a notable site in the Rhineland and Heidelberg. The provided materials do not include construction dates, detailed ownership history, or site management information beyond its status as a ruin and architectural landmark.
