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.

Between Frankenberg Castle and the Frankenberg ruins, past the castle cemetery, there is a beautiful descent that you can also drive up

The Hinterfrankenberg castle ruins, also called Frankenberg castle ruins, are the ruins of a medieval hilltop castle north of Weigenheim in the Middle Franconian district of Neustadt an der Aisch-Bad Windsheim in Bavaria.
