    Stein Castle

    The Lords of Stein were documented as Udalricus de Steine in 1118. This family can be traced back to Stein until the 16th century. Stein Castle had probably belonged to the Leuchtenberg family since the 12th century, but had been their own fief since the 14th century.

    On February 11, 1524, Mathes vom Stein sold Stein Castle and everything that went with it to Georg von Prandt. The Prandt family had taken over Hohentreswitz in 1576 and had thus risen to become one of the most powerful landed families in the Nabburg district.

    Unfortunately, the castle cannot be visited. Is now privately owned. Nevertheless, a wonderful sight from the Pfreimd. Just like churches are closed or sealed off by bars, it's the same elsewhere.. Too bad 😥
