Very beautiful landscape.

View from the town of Bad Münster am Stein.

Its origins are legendary: the devil is said to have built the castle on the steep, 245 m high porphyry rock. What is certain is that it dates back to the 11th century and was the ancestral home of the Lords of Stein, the later Wild and Rhine Counts.

Since the French troops of Louis XIV blew up the castle in 1689, it has been a ruin and at the same time a landmark of Bad Münster am Stein-Ebernburg.

The somewhat steep climb is rewarded with a wonderful view of the district and the surrounding area. The Rheingrafenstein castle ruins are located directly and conspicuously in the Bad Münster am Stein district on the other side of the Nahe. The ascent begins adventurously with the crossing of the hand-pulled ferry; it takes about 30 minutes.

In the ferry-free winter time, the Rheingrafenstein can also be easily hiked via the Speckerbrücke in the Ebernburg district.

Definitely worth seeing!

Def. A highlight.

We hadn't really dealt with the route beforehand and were really surprised to find something like that here. Great.

From Bad Münster am Stein-Ebernburg one has magnificent views up to the rock formation Rheingrafenstein and the castle of the same name. The area is a nature reserve, as the habitat of rare and threatened plant species and animals must be protected.
