    The lightning tubes are a natural monument in the form of a mineralogical phenomenon in the sandstone wall directly below the Battenberg castle ruins. The lightning tubes got their name because the people who lived here initially attributed their origin to the impact of lightning. You can stop at the castle. Nice castle tavern.
