At the top of the Hirschberg you will find the small and heavily overgrown ruins of the Hirschburg. The castle lords, the noble Hirschberg family, had built the castle on the Schanzenköpfle. After the last lords of the castle had built a large farm in the 14th century and moved there, the castle fell into disrepair. Today, in addition to some of the remains of the castle rampart, you can also explore the oval walls of the fallen keep.

On the top of the hill there are actually some remnants left. 2-3 red benches invite you to linger.
