There isn't much going on here - and there isn't really too much to see. But the ruins are definitely worth a short visit.

It is a very old border that was secured in the Middle Ages by the "Stapelnburg", which had already fallen into disrepair at the beginning of the 16th century. The castle was transferred to the archiepiscopal and Braunschweig jurisdiction by SIGISMUND VON BRANDENBURG (1538-1566), Archbishop of Magdeburg and administrator Councilor Dr. HEINRICH VON BILA (1535-1584). This happened against the will of the sovereign, the Counts of Stolberg. The new owner then not only had the castle expanded into a stately property, where in 1573 14 men lived with their commander ( probably with their families). Castle not unscathed.
