    The castle was built during the "Dhauner Fehde" (1337-1342) in the dispute of the Archbishop Balduin von Trier with the Wildgrave Johann von Dhaun and 1411 again demolished. The ruins of the round, today split residential tower or keep has been preserved.

      Not much to see of the castle anymore, but a place steeped in history:

        The ruin is located directly on the hiking route and invites you to take a break.
