    A historically highly interesting highlight. Because the remains of the old "castle" of Heinrich can be seen here, who is said to have received the news of his coronation as King of Germany. The castle dates from the time when emperors and kings still roamed the country to consolidate their claim to rule and to show themselves to the people. Heinrich had chosen a really great place to live here!
