The exact year of construction of the Sachsenburg is not known, only a first mention in the Hersfelder Annalen, in 1073. Long may have the castle but not passed, at the most to the 10 years, because in 1074, she was already demolished.
Extensive traces of both castles are still present today on the Sachsenstein: Numerous ramparts and moats from the old Saxon castle and remains of walls and towers built by King Henry's Romanesque castles.
