Burgruine Donaustauf (Donaustauf Castle) is a ruined hill castle located at a height of 424 m above sea level on a hill spur overlooking the River Danube. Between 914 and 930 AD, Bishop Tuto of Regensburg had a castle built here to defend the area from Hungarian invasion. Donaustauf Castle is one of over 40 castles in the Regensburg Land that are linked by a network of footpaths, the so-called 'Castle Trails'. The Donaustauf Castle Trail (Donaustaufer Burgensteig) is about 30 kilometres long. (Donaustauf, Germany)
