    beautiful picturesque area, unfortunately everything is private, you can only go into the courtyard and get a nice impression

    The castle, first mentioned in a document in 1255, is enthroned on a rock above the mouth of the Elbbach in the Sieg. It is privately owned, so you can only admire it from the outside. The quarry stone and brick buildings have slate roofs and the upper floors are partially clad in slate. Very impressive and definitely worth seeing.
