    From down here, on the Wörsbachtal cycle path, "View of Wallrabenstein castle ruins" is more appropriate 😉

      Count Walram IV of Nassau-Idstein, son of Count Adolf I of Nassau-Idstein, built the castle around 1390. He died on November 7, 1393 at the age of 40, before his son Adolf II of Nassau-Idstein had the castle finished the same year. He later pledged it to Count Henne von Reifenberg.

      From 1439 onwards the castle was loaned and used as a retirement home. A cellar bill from 1549 proves that it was still inhabited and in good condition.

      During the Thirty Years' War the castle was partially destroyed and made uninhabitable. The property has been privately owned since 1984.

        The ruins of the castle have been renovated again in recent years.
