    Hiking

    This is the cistern/well of the old Kirchberg Castle.

    A total of four castles stood one after the other on the local hill. Two of them, to confuse us later generations, had the same name.

    Thus, there are two Kirchberg Castles. The one we are more familiar with is the castle we call the Fuchsturm (Fox Tower). However, this was probably the actual royal palace. See photo.

    Hiking

    This hike is good for hikers to go. Not suitable for wheelchair users. Limited for strollers. The Fox Tower is currently closed. The restaurant is open.

    Hiking

    This little "detour" is worth it. If you leave the yellow hiking trail to the south, after a few meters you will reach a surprisingly quiet spot and the fenced cistern.
