    This archway is reminiscent of the former castle in Schweinshaupten, which was demolished in 1972.

      I haven't been able to determine whether this is actually the archway of the old castle. Nevertheless, it's a beautiful archway worth seeing.

        A palace or castle was first mentioned in 1303. The building served as a residence for the nobles of Schweinshaupten and from 1408 for the foxes of Schweinshaupten. The castle is said to have been destroyed in the peasant wars in 1525.
