The German Wine Gate in Silent-Rechenbach is accessible all year round and offers a beautiful all-round view. It is built in the style of a Roman fort. From a historical perspective, you should know that it was created in 1936 during National Socialism at the same time as the Wine Route. When looking at the Weintor from the French side, the former imperial eagle can still be seen; the obligatory swastika was subsequently knocked out. All too understandable. There are some very good winemakers in the surrounding area and it is highly recommended to try one or two wines.

An impressive building from a darker era in German history. It's the beginning or end of the German Wine Route and not far from Wissembourg. You can taste and purchase wine right there.

The White Lady of Hohenbourg Castle Not far from Hohenbourg Castle, just before the German-French border, is the Maidenbrunnen, which bears witness to a sad story: The lords of Hohenbourg and Wegelnburg were enemies for a long time. And as it was bound to happen, the squire Robert von Wegehiburg fell in love with Edwige, daughter of Lord von Hohebourg. She often lingered at the rich source between the two castles. One day Robert went hunting. He chased after a wild boar that rushed to the spring where Edwige was staying. In the heat of the moment, the wild boar jumped at Edwige, but Robert, a good hunter, was able to catch the wild boar just in time and won the heart of his beloved through this act. Often the two secretly spent time at this spring between the enemy castles. But one day the lord of Hohenbourg surprised his daughter in the arms of his archenemy's son. In blind rage he stabbed Robert in front of Edwige's eyes. She collapsed in grief and died on the spot, immediately following her lover to the realm of the dead. Since that awful day, two forget-me-not shrubs have been growing at this spring, now known as the Maiden's Well. It is not uncommon to see a white shadow over the Maidenbrunnen here at dusk: it is the ghost of Edwige, which descends from the cellars of the Hohenbourg and seeks the place of her love. There she sings sad words and sheds tears in the rivulet before vanishing again, carried by the wind. This legend comes from this link_: (https://www.wanderparadies-wasgau.de/hohenbourg.php)

A visit to Loewenstein Castle is worthwhile, but it is actually just a large foundation made of sandstone. Most of the walls that must have existed here have been removed. In terms of fortification, the Hohenbourg, which is only a few hundred meters higher, is much more interesting, as there are even more remains of the wall.

The castle was cleverly built in and around a high sandstone spur. Many remnants of the walls are still visible. The architectural style and carved dates suggest different historical periods. The view from the highest point is breathtaking. Two information panels explain the panorama. In this respect, this castle far surpasses the much more extensive, but also lower-lying, Fleckenstein Castle.
