      High above the Selke, in the middle of the nature reserve, rises Falkenstein Castle on a mountain spur. In 1120, Burchard was first mentioned by the Konradsburg as Herr zu Falkenstein and since 1155 the Falkensteiner appear as a count.

        Great castle in the middle of the forest ... this wonderful castle appears after a wonderful hiking trail.
