    The largest castle complex in the Palatinate lies to the east above Dahn. Its oldest parts date from the 11th century. The Dreierburg, built on free-standing, steep cliffs, is a typical Wasgauburg with chambers, stairs and passages carved into the rock. Guided tours of the castle for groups possible by appointment.

    One of Dahn's landmarks. Very large and imposing castle complex.

    The castle Altdahn is the ruin of a rock castle in the southern Palatinate Forest, the German part of the Wasgau (Rhineland-Palatinate). Source & more: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burg_Altdahn

    The castle ruin is a highlight for young and old, there are many angles and corners to climb and some dark chambers to explore ... ;-) In addition, you have a wonderful view from up here.
