You can already see the ruins of Haus Murach near Oberviechtach from afar. The 20 meter high keep with its viewing platform offers impressive views of the Upper Palatinate Forest. The key to the keep is available from the burgwart Manfred Senft, Obermurach 58, Tel. 09671/91234.

Every year on the 1st Sunday in August, the Hausern Castle Festival attracts numerous visitors.

Only a ruin remains of the once impressive Murach Castle, first mentioned in documents in 1110. The keep, built around 1250, is the best preserved part of the complex to date. On the 20-meter-high tower there is a viewing platform from which you can enjoy a wonderful panoramic view of the surrounding area. The former castle is one of the largest and most impressive castles along the Bohemian border. !Attention! The key to the keep must be picked up in advance from the castle warden, Obermurach 58, Tel. 09671/91234.
