    Tips

    The confluence of the Gelbach and the Lahn was chosen as the location for the fortification. The castle is designed in the form of a low castle, which is unusual for the region.
    The original castle was transformed into a water castle by a dam. Today, only the square keep in the Romanesque style has been preserved as a component from the 13th century. The other fortifications, a ring wall and an eight meter high shield wall with two flanking towers, have Gothic elements and were built in the 14th or 15th century. Probably from the middle of the 14th century, the castle no longer served as a knight's seat, but primarily as a farm.
