Hiking
Landshut Castle is the ruins of a hilltop castle.
It was built at the end of the 13th century by Heinrich von Finstingen, Archbishop of Trier.
Today, it features an external elevator. The castle's renovation is still underway. The keep can be climbed. For entry, a ticket must be purchased from the vending machine in the castle courtyard (€1).
Only accessible during the castle restaurant's opening hours.

3. ...exquisite Riesling is served here! ☺️🍷🍇
