The Fürstenstein hilltop castle above Albungen, which is now privately owned and not open to the public, probably existed as early as 1250. After changing owners and fiefdoms, it was owned by the Lords of Diede for several centuries until 1807.

If you cycle down the cycle path from the Höllental valley to Albungen, you will have this view up to the Fürstenstein castle just before you reach Albungen.
