  • Large and well-preserved castle ruins. Costs a little admission. The proceeds are used by the association, which works to preserve the ruins, for conservation measures.

  • Very beautiful castle ruins with large parking directly below the castle. Nice, that you also in the evening outside the opening hours walk around the castle.

  • Great and very large castle complex. The entrance fee for the Oberburg is definitely worth it. In the outer ward there is currently a fairly priced beer garden with self-service.

  • For me the castle is somehow something very special about Lörrach and I really enjoy being there. I don't really know why that is the case. Somehow it has a very special flair and I really like it😍.

  • You can start from Lörrach Haagen-Messe. From this station it's not far away up to Burg Roetteln. It's a great old Burg with many hiking trails around and the Bannwald is not far away too.

  • Worth seeing castle ruins that can be visited for a small entrance fee.
