Hohenstein itself is nothing special and does not have to be viewed. Only the castle is interesting.

From Wikipedia: The village of Hohenstein is a part of the parish of Kirchensittenbach in the Hersbrucker Alb in Middle Franconia. The place is on the Hohensteiner Berg and has about 150 residents.[1] In the western part of the local area is Hohenstein Castle, a semi-ruin at 624 meters above sea level. After Auernheim on the Hahnenkamm, Hohenstein is the second highest village in Middle Franconia.
