    Hiking

    Very nice, unobstructed medieval ambience.
    The place gained fame by the most powerful woman of the Middle Ages, Countess Loretta von Sponheim, who forced the respect of their rights by the abduction of Archbishop Balduin von Trier, the brother of the then Emperor.

    Hiking

    A very beautiful and unspoiled medieval ambience. The place became famous through the most powerful woman of the Middle Ages, Countess Loretta von Sponheim, who forced respect for her rights by kidnapping Archbishop Baldwin of Trier, the brother of the then emperor.

    Hiking

    The Medieval Path was voted Germany's most beautiful tour in 2012. In the city gate of Herrstein the Schinderhannes was detained one night.
