Hiking

Schenkenau was first mentioned in 1286 as the ancestral seat of the von Rotenhan family. The medieval fortress on the Erfurt-Nuremberg trade route was destroyed except for the ground floor during the Peasants' War of 1525, but was subsequently rebuilt as a Ganerbenburg (Ganerbenburg). After 1437, the castle changed hands several times. Since 1960, Schenkenau has been owned by the Treiber family, who began generating electricity in 1961 and offered farm holidays since 1973.

You can stay here overnight. Great area and the quiet here ... Fantastic. Located right next to the Itz!

Actually a beautiful old manor house that looks like it needs some renovation.
