Fine castle ruins that host occasional celebrations with beer and grilled food... coffee and cake lovers will also get their money's worth... but you should check the opening times... and if you're there for hiking... the path along the mountain ridge... a dream

Always worth a visit. Great view of Hammelburg. The events can be found on the Friends of Trimburg website.

The ruin high above Elfershausen-Trimburg was built in 1135.
During the peasant uprising in 1525, however, the castle was badly damaged. It was rebuilt but abandoned at the beginning of the 19th century.

The inner courtyard of the Trimburg looks very impressive with its large stone blocks.
