    The old castle ruins on the Schlossberg offer not only a ruin exploration but also a great view of the valley

        From the imposing 12th-century Windeck Castle ruins, you have a magnificent view of the Bergisches Land and the Westerwald regions. The Sieg River forms the border between these two natural areas. You can relax on the throne-like bench with a snack and lose yourself in the expansive vista.
