    From a tower, a wooden staircase leads up to a lookout point with a beautiful view of the castles Hohbarr and Groß Geroldseck.
    The complex consists of two castles, each on a rocky plateau. The eastern "Greater or Greifenstein" from the 12th century and the western "Greifenstein" from the 13th century

      In addition to Ralf, it should also be said that to the left of the stairs of the Greifenstein castles is the Klein- or Vordergreifstein with the remains of a mighty tower built in the 12th century. To the right is the younger Großstein or Hintergreifstein, with a third tower in between, which unfortunately can no longer be climbed. This was closed due to dilapidation.

        Unfortunately, the ruin has been closed to visitors since mid-2021 and access is prohibited
