Hi vknuever,
I know it's not exactly like your drawing, but You can try this one "Fontazia Chateaux 1&2".
This Font Family was designed by Denise Koehler and published by Deniart Systems.
Out of curiosity, where did you find these drawings? Perhaps they were your own creation...
Hi vknuever,
in another style, you also have this dingbat font "Black Castle" designed by Masyafi Studio.
I found the font on geocaching.
it's part of an mysterie to solve.
i know the castles refer to 0 to 9.
the hint i got was dafont/ kastelencode.
so i searched dafont.com multiple hours. used several font identifiers, but so far no luck.
This looks like someone's drawing. If you are looking for similar may I suggest looking at this collection of vector artwork
https://www.vecteezy.com/search_by_image/7697430?content_type=image&similar_image_search=true thanks for the suggestion. it looks similar, but still i cant get numbers out of it.
Have you posted the entire mystery to be solved?
Is the image complete?
it's really interesting ...
The word "Kastelen" comes from Dutch and simply means: 🏰 "castles"
- ✳️ Linguistic details:
"Kasteel" = castle (singular)
"Kastelen" = castles (plural)
So "Kastelencode" is a portmanteau (or pun) that literally means:
🔐 "castle code" (or "code in castles")
i tried looking for translations of the code, but it didnīt give results.
the image is complete.
but i found another image with the same font.
I know that every castle is a number. I also know that i should get a Coordinate out of this.
N51 XX.XXX E005 XX.XXX
you can find the other image here.

Hi vknuever,
Indeed, I agree with you that it's an alphanumeric code, which should give a location in Belgium 🇧🇪, for example.
Do you have the GCXXXXX codes?
I'd like to have information on the geocache's description and the "hider," who could perhaps give us the alphabet used or made by him, or the year it was created.
It is going to be a place between Oirschot and Best in the Netherlands.
this are the codes.
The cacher didn;t want to give me more clues.
I know now that if we put the castles to numbers you get
51 AB.BCB
005 BD.ABB
51 ED.EFA
005 BG.GEH
GCB1844
GCB184X
