A very small and barely preserved castle ruin with a single tower (not always accessible). But you have a great view over Burgsponheim and the valley opposite and you get a lot of information on various panels about the castle and its connection with Hildegard von Bingen.

Sponheim Castle was first mentioned in documents in 1127. At the beginning of the 13th century, the Counts of Sponheim moved their seat of government to Kreuznach.

The castle has a high tower, but unfortunately it was locked. There are also tables and benches available for a short rest.
