From the castle ruins you can enjoy a beautiful view down into the valley with the town of Unzmarkt. A few meters below the castle there is a church worth seeing.

The Frauenburg was built in the 13th century, burned down in 1861 and was not rebuilt after that. Today the complex is a listed building.

The medieval Frauenburg castle shines high above the town of Unzmarkt-Frauenburg. From here you have a wonderful view down into the valley. The church of Frauenburg is very close by (just a few meters lower).

This castle was built in the 13th century by the minstrel Ulrich von Liechtenstein. After his family line died out, two other families came into possession of the Frauenburg castle. In 1861 there was a fire at the castle that turned the castle into what it is today: a ruin. A century later the castle was restored and is now a listed building. Nevertheless, you can visit this castle, take a close look at the old buildings and enjoy the view.
