Part of the castle is open to the public during the day until 6 p.m., with the exception of the youth hostel building. The tower complex appears to be very well maintained. There is a wonderful view of the Kinzig valley, the Rhine plain and Offenburg.

In the 11th/12th century, the Zähringers built a castle on this site to protect the Kinzig Valley. In the 15th century, the castle was expanded to include defense towers. At the end of the 17th century, the castle was destroyed twice. In the 18th century, the current castle was built in the English style on the ruins of the old castle. Today, there is a youth hostel and a wine-producing farm here.
