text: # Alter Schlossberg (Ebermannstadt)
  
  The burgstall of Alter Schlossberg (German: Burgstall Alter Schlossberg) is the site of an old castle located on a plateau-like hilltop, the so-called Schlossberg ("castle hill"), about 500 metres southeast of Burggaillenreuth, a village in the borough of Ebermannstadt in the county of Forchheim, in the south German state of Bavaria.
  
  The medieval burgstall is the site of a spur castle, of which only a few rampart remains have survived. It appears to have been a circular rampart probably from the late Hallstatt period and early La Tène period.
