The Erichsburg, formerly Erichsberg, is a ruined medieval castle near the village of Friedrichsbrunn in the Harz Mountains in central Germany. It is located within the boundaries of Gernrode, a part of Quedlinburg.
In 1320 Count Henry of Stolberg bought the fortified manor house of Erichsberg, together with other goods and chattels, from Heineke of Hoym and Bertholdus II of Arnswald, known as Geylvus . The castle had first been mentioned in the 12th century and was probably built to protect a trading route. In order to protect his new possessions, he enfeoffed it, along with Wolfsberg Castle which he had purchased at the same time, in 1325 to the Bishop of Halberstadt.
