The moated castle of Friedewald was built in the 13th century at this strategic point, because medieval military and long-distance trade routes met here. After it was destroyed in the Seven Years' War, it lost its importance. It was only partially used. Today you can visit them and climb the thick tower.

You can find more information and the opening hours here: museum-friedewald.de/museum/oeffnungszeiten_und_preise/oeffnungszeiten_und_preise.html.

Incidentally, you can go to the tower. The moated castle is part of the castle complex with hotel. You can cross the castle area. The 5-star hotel and restaurant is certainly first-class, but for us hikers a bit too fine.
