The almost 900-year-old castle was burned down in the Peasants' War by farmers under the leadership of the knight Götz von Berlichingen. Since then it is a ruin. Despite everything, you will be amazed how well the huge walls are still preserved. If you walk over the ancient stone pavement and look at the huge walls, the craftsmanship of old builders will impress you.

The Parzival castle. The holy grail is said to be hidden here. Didn't find him. Very very nice place steeped in history. You should have seen it.

There is a nice resting place within the castle ruins of Wildenberg. This invites you to linger after viewing the numerous details in the castle ruins.
