    Probably the castle was built in the 11th century to protect the over the Haßberg comb running high road, the Rennweg, to protect the trade route between Bamberg and Fulda. The Bramberger knights, however, did not keep to this task, but acted on the contrary as a highwayman and robber.

    Today you can enjoy a beautiful view of the region from the 500 meter high basalt summit of Bramberges.

      A wide forest road leads from the trail parking lot to the castle ruins.

        Highest castle in the Hassberge. From here you have a fantastic view of the Rhön, the Gleichberge and the Thuringian Forest.
