Worth seeing castle ruins with a great view of the region. It is best to come in the afternoon to take photos.

After around 3000 years, there is not much left of the castle itself. But the view over the Fricktal and large parts of the Jura alone is phenomenally beautiful. A visit to the ruins can also be perfectly combined with a hike on the Fricktaler Chriesiwäg.

A larger ruin with several levels, there are also barbecue areas in and around the ruin.
@Teddy B: How do you get 3000 years? xD
