      Not much is left of the ruins. But great view.

          Neuenstein Castle was first mentioned in 1123. In the early 14th century, a family named Rohart, who had immigrated from Offenburg and held the office of mayor in Oberkirch and used the title of office as their family name, built a new castle, the "new Neuenstein", on this site. In 1430, the castle was repaired and then passed to the Margrave of Baden. In the course of a dispute, the castle was destroyed in 1470.
