In the middle of the 14th century there was a small castle and a place in the 15th/16th. century was abandoned.
Around the end/beginning of the 17th/18th In the 19th century, the Goburg estate settled with pasture and agriculture, later a sawmill was built. In 1959 the last residents left the estate and fled to the West. After the estate had stood empty for three years, it was demolished in 1962 as part of border security measures.
Today you can still find the remains of stables and cisterns to the left and right of the path.
It's worth browsing around there ;-)
