Tips

The castle in Wolkenburg was owned by the von Einsiedel family until it was expropriated. It is not the Free State that owns the property, but rather an interest group that is lovingly taking care of the repairs and maintenance, which you can really see as the resources are limited, as the association approaches the matter in a completely different way. The higher entrance fee is also worth it. The entrance portal has also been lovingly restored and planted.

The Wolkenburg dates back to the 12th century. One of its most famous lords in the 15th century was Kunz von Kaufungen, who is known for the Saxon prince couple. The last lords of the castle were the Counts of Einsiedel.

Beautiful hike from Zinnberg over the Hauboldfelsen! There is a café in the castle courtyard!
