Madenburg

A jewel among the Palatinate castles. Well restored, with excellent castle taverns and a view that can otherwise only be enjoyed from the Landeck. On clear days you can see across the entire Rhine plain to the Odenwald.

You can park right next to the castle. Free entry.

Great 360 ° panorama over Rhine plain and Palatine forest. In the distance, the Black Forest is easy to see! In the tavern, there are all sorts of food (including vegetarian) and drinks at really good prices (large Radler 0.5 l for 3 €).

Short trip to the Madenburg, but was closed because of bad weather! The Note: Closed in bad weather is to be taken literally. The main gate is then locked and the plant only from the outside to visit!

Typical Palatine Forest Tavern. With hearty food and drink. Open from April to October. Closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.

Well-visited destination with refreshments:

Many paths lead to the castle.

Johannes Wind writes that you can drive up to Madenburg .. .. No, that's not true, you can not drive up to Madenburg. A piece you have to take your feet in your hand.

One of the largest castles in the Palatinate. Very nice view of the Rhine valley and in a westerly direction over the hills of Wasgau. Managed with a small Burgschänke.

We were now in March and it was open. And there are very tasty dishes!

Very nice old castle with castle tavern.
The tarte flambée and the knight drink are recommended

Great food with great views.
Recommended the tarte and the knight drink

Great castle with a wonderful panoramic view!
The hot chocolate ☕️ is recommended on cold days 👍

Super excursion destination with children. There is a lot to discover in the winding ruin and the hospitality is also good.

From the Madenburg you have a great view of the Rhine Valley.
The Schoppen tastes better.

A fantastic view of the Rhine Valley and a perfect place to rest, because the Madenburg is managed. Only to be recommended for a short trip!

Sensational view of the Rhine valley, good food

Winding castle ruins with great views over the Rhine Valley and built inn. Although the rest should take longer, it will not be boring, as there is much to discover.
But there is always a lot going on - the trail parking lot is not far away.

Outside a lot of space in the courtyard.
Delicious tarte flambée and changing daily specials.

After the climb you will be rewarded with a magnificent view over the Rhine plain. Adventurers come in and around the castle also at their expense. Absolutely bring hunger. Palatine specialties on the back terrace enjoy with a view.

Magnificent view over the Rhine plain

Food is delicious, but may take a while in good weather!

One of the most beautiful castles in the Palatinate, but in good weather very crowded, because almost directly approachable by car.

Beautiful view along the Haardtrand, the vineyards and in the Northern Vosges! The food is delicious, but in good weather it may take a while!

A beautiful castle with a wide view ....

Beautiful castle ruins with a fantastic view of the Rhineland
