Fischberg Castle (Burgruine Fischberg) was a high medieval fortification in the Felda valley that was sited on an exposed hill above the villages of Klings, Fischbach and Diedorf. Its ruins currently stand in the county of Wartburgkreis (Thuringia) - in the Anterior Rhön, part of a mountain region in central Germany.
