A jewel among the Palatinate castles. Well restored, with an excellent castle tavern 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. Admission free.

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

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!
