    A visit to Hiltenburg Castle is worthwhile at any time of year. Unfortunately, the ruins are not particularly well preserved, but during the summer months, you can explore the castle's interior on weekends, which also houses a small museum (exhibition).

      History in the tower
      1000 years Hiltenburg

      Opening hours: 1 April to 31 October,
      Sundays and public holidays from 11am to 5pm

      Information in the town hall Bad Ditzenbach
      Tel. 07334 9601-0

      On two levels, the exhibition informs about the history of the Hiltenburg and provides insights and the everyday life of its inhabitants.
      The fate of the castle after the destruction in 1516 and the efforts to preserve the historic buildings are further focal points.
      Unique is the reconstruction of a Kaclofen from the early 13th century. Mysterious effect of the visible foundation area of the keep.

        The Hiltenburg is worthwhile in every season. You will definitely be rewarded with a wonderful view of the upper Filstal. There is a tower on the ruin that can be climbed with a steel staircase. Otherwise, barbecue area and enough space for children, dogs, etc.
