The Frauenberg castle ruins have flair: It is a beautiful ruin with history, whose viewing platform offers a fantastic view in almost any weather and at any time of year. In her time, Sophie of Brabant certainly appreciated the view from her “living room”.

Frauenberg Castle, which is now only partially preserved, was built in 1252 by the Duchess Sophie von Brabant, the daughter of Saint Elisabeth, and gradually fell into disrepair after being stormed from 1470 to 1489 and no longer inhabited after 1528.
