This ruined castle, the landmark of Angersbach, stands above the Lauter. The castle was built in the 13th century, but according to excavations, the ancient Romans are likely to have dug storage pits here as early as 200 AD. However, just a few decades after its construction, the castle was destroyed again due to a feud. After that, the ruin served the surrounding villages as a quarry for a long time. The ruins were later recognized as a cultural monument and extensive excavations were carried out. Today the old ruin can be visited, and weddings are even held here from time to time.

You should definitely take a break here and visit the venerable, old walls of this castle ruin. A local association lovingly takes care of the maintenance of this facility.

Small ruins between Lauterbach and Bad Salzschlirf.

Attention: If you want to cycle under the railway bridge, you should stop beforehand. Otherwise you rattle on the low-lying bridge.
