Did you know, that ... (Part 13)
... you cannot tap "Heidelberg Castle" to swap equipment when it is about to be destroyed by "Unnatural Desaster" (or any other similar "instant effect", e.g. the special ability of the "War Ghoul"). Also you cannot tap this location when it is destroyed by "Arson" or changes controller by playing "Disputed Territory", but this is due to the card text of "Heidelburg Castle" which allows no tapping of the card during an action.

can't see why it is not possible on unnatural disaster it is not an action.
The simple answer is, because there's a ruling that says otherwise:
Check the VtES rulings website http://www.white-wolf.com/vtes/rulings.html.
It says under the "Heidelberg Castle" entry:
Heidelberg Castle may not be tapped "in response" to any instant effect (because all effects in V:TES are instantaneous except for actions and certain combat effects). [LSJ]
