    A dream of a ruined castle, I would have loved to see that in the 13th century

    The upper castle existed as a military and residential castle until the Thirty Years' War. Her
    Between 1870 and 1890 the ruin became a lookout tower and an inn
    expanded in the neo-Gothic style. Since it was destroyed in a fire at Pentecost 1945
    of the upper castle are the keep, the three-storey residential building and the circular
    dig preserved as a ruin.
