The remains of the former stately castle tower over the town as if it were still guarding the community today. The location of the castle was strategically very well chosen. You have a wonderful view of the valley landscape. It lies 514m above sea level and can only be seen in its basic features which stately castle it was once.

The Randeck castle ruins were once a notorious “robbing barons’ nest”. Today, the remains of the castle complex are a popular tourist destination, and a wonderful view of the Altmühl valley awaits you from the keep.
A visit to the castle ruins is worthwhile, and I can particularly recommend climbing the tower. The views are fantastic. You can even drive up to the castle by car, and the €2 entrance fee as a donation to the castle’s preservation is really well spent.

Beautiful complex with the remains of the once proud castle complex from the 11th century. The keep offers a magnificent view of the Altmühltal, the sometimes steeper climb is worth it and the €2 donation is definitely worth it.
