The "Enemy Brothers" is a German legend about the neighboring castles Sterrenberg and Liebenstein, which you see from here on the other side of the valley. The story about the two brothers Heinrich and Konrad is said to have been first told in 1587. Both fell in love with the beautiful Hildegard. That this does not end with a happy ending, is somehow foreseeable ... If you want to read more: The legend is the subject of the poem "Two brothers" by Heinrich Heine in the book of songs.
