    Schwarzenfels Castle is the ruins of a hilltop castle at 427 m above sea level. NN high hill in the district of Schwarzenfels in the municipality of Sinntal in the Main-Kinzig district in Hesse. It is said to take its name from the black dolerite it is made of.
    The castle was first mentioned in 1280. In 1333 she came to the County of Hanau with an inheritance from the House of Rieneck. It was an imperial fief and formed the administrative center of the Schwarzenfels office. For this reason, after the castle complexes were built, it was expanded into a residential palace, of which the richly decorated portal from 1621 with the fountain in front of it still bears witness.
