The history of the castle ruins on the Hohenlandsberg goes back to the 12th century. After the original lords of the castle, the Barons of Hohenlandsberg, died out, the castle changed hands several times. The castle was destroyed in the Margravial War in 1554 and was not rebuilt afterwards. Today the remains are under monument protection. In addition to the foundations of the fortress ramparts, you can also explore the well-preserved casemates.

During the Peasants' War in 1525, the castle was taken unscathed by the farmers. In 1554 the castle was destroyed.

The castle ruins are worth seeing because of their beautiful location and their remoteness.
The history of the castle and that of the owner of the Hohenlandsberg is long and changeable!
