Angenstein Castle, located in the municipality of Duggingen in the canton of Basel-Land, Switzerland, is a medieval castle dating to 1300. Recognized as a Swiss cultural property of national significance and a townscape worthy of protection, the castle occupies a prominent position in the regional landscape. The Jura Railway, which connects Basel and Delémont, passes beneath the castle through a tunnel, a testament to the structure's enduring presence at a historically strategic location. The castle has become sufficiently notable to lend its name to local organizations, including a Scout group.
