You have a nice view from the Rollburg. The climb is definitely worth it. And because nothing has been renovated here, you mostly have your peace of mind here.

Wikipedia tells you the following about the castle:

The first clear evidence of the existence of the rolling castle dates back to the 14th century, however the first wooden castle complex was probably built as early as the 13th century. The oldest surviving parts of the castle are the two mighty residential towers, which were probably built in the 14th century. In the 15th century, the castle was obviously expanded again, and a mighty shield wall was built, the function of which is unclear given the location on a high mountain. The castle was conquered by the troops of the Six Cities Association in 1468. They made use of a cunning, they entered the castle with the cattle returning from the pasture. In 1505 the castle was mentioned as desolate.

Old castle ruins with great views over the countryside. The ruin is unfortunately not maintained and is very wild.
