    Hiking

    Frankenberg Castle is located just a few meters away from the Hinterfrankenberg castle ruins. Originally, a rival castle to Hinterfrankenberg Castle stood here in 1254, with which the Nuremberg burgraves wanted to secure their territory. When the disputes over the power were largely settled after the end of the Margrave's War, Frankenberg Castle was gradually converted into a palace.
