Hanstein Castle Ruins are one of the most famous and interesting castle complexes in Central Germany. It was built in its current size in 1308 and took 200 years to build. From the walkable north tower you have a wonderful view of the surrounding landscape. If the visibility is good, you can also see the Brocken in the Harz Mountains.
