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).

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.

Very nice, spacious facility that provides 360° views. Hardly visited during the week. There is also a toilet block.
