The tower is accessible, but be careful: lots of steps, steep stairs and little opportunity to avoid oncoming traffic. Nevertheless, it is definitely worth it - the panoramic view from above is gigantic!
On the way back down, I first saw how low two passages with stone ceilings are and how narrow the steps look from above.

Steinsberg Castle, the compass of the Kraichgau, is visible from afar on a basalt cone between Sinsheim and Weiler. Eventful guided tours and gastronomy in the former residential and farm buildings are among the attractions in the historic ambience. The kitchen attaches great importance to freshness and regionality when it comes to the food on offer, and as knights, the operators offer unforgettable moments at medieval events, knight's banquets and castle festivals. They put together special arrangements for weddings and conferences.
Opening times: burg-steinsberg.deThe castle complex and the keep are freely accessible.
Since it was first mentioned in 1109, the castle complex has experienced an eventful history with different owners, extensions, destruction and reconstruction. In 1973, the city of Sinsheim acquired the castle complex and has taken care of its preservation ever since.
