    Hiking

    The source of the Frankenburg lies outside the castle grounds on the slope. For a long time it was considered dry. In 2019 it was discovered by chance in the course of roadworks, and with it the donkey path on which the animals transported the water they needed to the castle.

    The natural basin of the Eselsborn supplied the inhabitants of the Frankenberg Castle above with fresh water.
