Ror Castle (Ruin)
The Ror ruin is a castle ruin on the slope of the Schlösslesberg (preceding the Hundsrücken) at about 673 meters above sea level near the municipality of Bisingen in the Zollernalbkreis in Baden-Württemberg.
The hilltop castle was built in the 12th century by the Lords of Bisingen, who were seneschals of the Counts of Zollern, to secure their property. Later, Walger von Bisingen is mentioned as the owner, and in 1342, the castle, which was destroyed in 1311 by Reutlingen in the war between the Swabian Imperial Cities and Württemberg, is referred to as a castle site. Excavations took place from 1953 to 1959. Wall remains of the former castle complex are still preserved.
