A break in the castle courtyard is not possible, but benches and tables invite the visitor to take a rest with a view of the fortified tower of the Nordeck ruins.

The Nordeck castle ruins are picturesquely situated in the beautiful Steinachtal, very close to the "Waldschänke" inn and directly on the Frankenwald-Steigla "Zum Forstmeistersprung". Unfortunately, you no longer have a view from there, as everything has grown over.

A small medieval ruin in the Steinachtal, worth seeing after it is rehabilitated and walkable. In the old days she was not yet enthroned in the forest over the narrow Steinachtal
