    In the shadow of the ruin there is an interesting steele which, at the push of a button, prizes some songs and poems by Walther von Stollberg, who became famous as a minstrel in the Middle Ages under the name "Walther von der Vogelweide". According to more recent, confirmed findings, the Stollburg is said to be his birthplace.

      On the red stele, which can be seen from afar, you can listen to the minstrel's songs/poems by pressing a button.

        Walther von der Vogelweide from the Steigerwald? A historically significant place in the middle of the Steigerwald. Great, the Walther column!
