This is where they lived, the robber barons. The description of her end makes one shudder. The terrain is adventurous to explore. Fight your way straight through the moat into the middle of the castle ;) There is a rest area in front of the castle grounds.

First customs and Schutzburg, then Raubritterburg, now ruin. What a career.

A beautiful resting place in the shade and who wants to explore the environment.

South of the ruin you can still find traces of the former mining.
