How beautifully clear some names are. In any case, Birkenfeld should be called that because a striking birch population once attracted attention. And so the Franconian settlement was first mentioned …

Date of origin: 13th century

Only a few ruins remain of the castle, including the former castle inn "Zum unmarried Waidsack" and the castle gate.

Neither the ascent through a residential area, nor the "castle remains" worthwhile. But the view of Birkenfeld, which can be enjoyed from the last standing tower of the former castle, is great.
