Klingenberg Castle near Wipfeld is privately owned - and you can only find it if you look for it specifically. It was first mentioned in a document in 1279 and is located on a ridge about 1 km south of Wipfeld.
The way to the castle is ultimately blocked, but visiting the area in front of the castle is not expressly forbidden. On Wikipedia it says: "The three-storey three-wing system with end gables and a trapezoidal inner courtyard as well as the neck moat system with brick bridge have been essentially preserved to this day."
