The ruins of Hunnesrück Castle are situated on a steep slope atop the Amtsberg hills. Some remnants of the walls are still visible. The deep moats are particularly impressive.

Only remains of the castle ruins remain. However, a sign allows you to reconstruct what it must have looked like here. Through the trees you also have a beautiful view of the valley.
