Castle ruins Schloßthal is written on a sign. Dollendorf Castle in the list of architectural monuments.

Approximately two kilometers north of Dollendorf, on the western edge of the Schloßthal area, on a plateau that slopes steeply down to the Ahr valley in the east and the Lampert valley in the north and west, separated from the hinterland by a moat and rampart, ruins of the former Dollendorf Castle, known as "Schloß Dahl". Schloßthal, originally surrounded by a ring wall, of which remnants are still preserved in the outer walls of the residential buildings, especially on the valley side, formed the "Dollan Valley". Only small parts of the castle's masonry have been preserved in their original form; extensive restorations and reconstructions; large amounts of rubble and collapsed material inside, as well as possibly partially intact cellar sections.

Main building structure 14th century; sold for demolition in 1810
