Wallenfels Castle is the remains of a hilltop castle on the 498 meter high steep mountain cone above the village of the same name in the municipality of Siegbach. It was first mentioned in documents in 1334 as "Waltinfelss". It was uninhabited since 1480, fell into disrepair and was demolished.

Another highlight that doesn't quite fit together. The photo was taken at the entrance to the town, and the highlight is located about 400 meters south of Wallenfels.
