    A very beautiful old property. Unfortunately, it's not open to the public for a full tour. However, you do have a lovely view of the community of Neidenstein and the surrounding area.

      Neidenstein Castle is a hilltop castle above the Schwarzbach valley above the municipality of Neidenstein in the Rhein-Neckar district in Baden-Württemberg.
      The hilltop castle, the oldest parts of which date back to the 13th century, was first mentioned in 1319. The castle was an imperial fief of the Lords of Venningen. The castle was expanded in the 16th century and the outer bailey was added. Towards the end of the 18th century, the complex, which had been spared from destruction until then, began to decay. Around 1900, renovation work was carried out on the castle, in whose forecourt the town's Catholic church had been built in 1880. The renovation of the castle continued from 1960 onwards. The castle is privately owned by the von Venningen family and can only be visited to a limited extent. The main castle is inhabited, and the "Jägerhaus" in the outer bailey below the castle has been a local history museum since 1994. The castle complex is used for cultural events and castle concerts by local clubs.
