    The ruins of the Lauenburg stand high above Stecklenberg. From the tower, the viewing platform of which was created by scaffolding, one overlooks the Harz foreland. The main castle is a few meters away. The moat, which you walk through via a staircase, is immediately impressive. Probably the biggest highlight of the ruin is a linden tree that forms a protective tunnel with its roots. The ruin is freely accessible at any time. There is another ruin in the vicinity: the Mecklenburg one. The adjacent Wurmbach valley offers incredible peace and quiet.
