The former hilltop castle probably dates from the High Middle Ages. Exactly no one knows when the Adelsburg was built, the only historical mention dates back to 1355. Today, unfortunately, the castle is not much left, in isolated cases you can guess the foundations. What has remained is the wonderful view. Once you have enjoyed the view on top of the ruin, you can well imagine why the castle was built here.

The castle Dietrichstein was probably built in the early High Middle Ages and destroyed again before the end of the Middle Ages. From the ruins you have a nice view of Trubachtal.

There is not much to see of the former hilltop castle apart from a few remains of the wall and an archway. However, it is still worth stopping by for the view. Take a seat on the bench, relax and enjoy the wonderful view of the Trubach Valley.
