A hall crossing was certainly the reason for the construction of a castle and thus the prerequisite for the development of the city Hirschberg. From the castle only remains of the tower stump remains. In 1154 Hirschberg was first mentioned in a document (Wikipedia).

From 1945 to 1989 was Hirschberg border town on the inner German border (in the restricted area, in addition to the usual barriers also separated by a wall of Bavaria) and from 1966 namesake of the border crossing on the A 9 (Rudolphstein on the Bavarian side).
