Tips
The rock on which the castle rests was acquired by Meginold in 927. It was previously owned by the Abbey of Stavelot. Not much is known from this period, only that Meginold's descendants - Gottfried and Heinrich - left the castle built here to go to the first crusade (1096-1099). In the 14th century the castle passed from family ownership and was divided between three local families: Brandenbourg, Kronenburg and Falkenstein.
