    The Heldenburg, also known as Salzderhelden Castle, is a ruined castle above the town of Salzderhelden in southern Lower Saxony. It served to protect the salt well at the foot of the castle complex, from which the Salzderhelden salt works developed. Between 1291 and 1596 it was the residence and at times the main residence of the dukes of the Guelph Principality of Grubenhagen.

    Hiking

    Great castle ruins with lots to discover and beautiful photo opportunities, benches invite you to rest and enjoy the view. The area is very well maintained and you can fortify yourself for the rest of the tour in the castle tavern.
