Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Nanstein Castle, Germany. Two gunports in the great artillery tower built 1518. In the famous siege of 1523 the castle was destroyed by modern artillery within a few days.
Deutsch: Burg Nanstein, Pfälzer Wald. Zwei Schießkammern im Geschützturm "Großes Rondell", vermutlich original von 1518. Sie befinden sich im ersten Obergeschoß, beide zielen in den Bereich vor dem äußersten Burgtor. In der linken Kammer stand vielleicht ein großes Geschütz für "Hagelschüsse" (Bleischrot, Steine...), die rechte diente wohl nur dem Einsatz einer Handfeuerwaffe. Zwischen den Kammern im Vordergrund eine Öffnung zum darunterliegenden Geschoß, die dem Abzug von Pulverdämpfen diente.
