    On the ruin Sausenburg you reach the remnant of a hill castle, which was built in the 13th century and was in the possession of the Margrave of Sausenburg. Today, the ruin of the castle wall, single wall remains and a castle tower is preserved, which you can climb and which offers in clear weather, a magnificent view. It is said in the vernacular that there are blue lights floating around at night and treasures are buried there where they go out. So, open your eyes!

      From the tower you can enjoy a fantastic panoramic view of the Markgräflerland.
      Even the Swiss Jura seems within your grasp!

        Castle and ruin are, of course, as expected at the highest point ;-).
