    Hiking

    The predecessor of the Tannenberg Castle, which was built in the 14th century and was around 700 m to the east, stood on the "Alten Kuppe". Alt-Tannenberg was probably built by the Hersfeld abbot after the abbey received a wild ban (special royal hunting rights) from King Heinrich II in 1003. The purpose of the castle was to control the northern part of the imperial forest. Both castles probably existed in parallel for a long time. It is said that stones from the old castle were used for the new building.
