Greifenstein Castle is one of the most famous mountain castles in the Frankenjura. The first mention was made in 1172. The core of the castle is medieval, but the outer shape was redesigned in 1683/93 according to plans by Leonard Dientzenhofer. It has been owned by the Counts Schenk von Stauffenberg since the end of the 17th century. It is worth visiting the extensive arms and antler collection of the Counts of Stauffenberg.
