Built before 1000 as a castle to protect the Pegnitz Bridge. In 1360, Emperor Charles IV bought the land and had a house built for the New Bohemian administrator. In 1557 the old walls were laid in and a new official castle was built for the Nuremberg keeper. In 1616 it was raised and expanded. Since then it has remained almost unchanged in its structural substance. Magnificent stucco ceilings have been preserved inside. Instead of a tenth barn, a prison (Fronfeste) was built on the east side of the castle courtyard in 1840. It was the seat of the caretaker, district office and district office - today it is the district court.

Very nice palace complex. Fortunately used by the authorities and well maintained
