    Hiking

    The remains of the tower, which was once 30 meters high, stand out from the deep forest. The castle was probably built in the 12th century and has been rebuilt and modified several times, and for a few years it even served as a prison. The facility was abandoned in 1750 and is now a popular hiking destination.
