Burghausen Castle is the longest castle in Europe (3421 ft, 1043 m [1]) or the longest castle in the world, according to current assessments (3448 ft, 1051 m). Soon I will also publish additional photos and descriptions of parts of the Burghausen Castle – towers and buildings – as well as additional information regarding the length of the castle and its place in the ranking.
