According to Roman coin finds discovered in the 1970s, Heidelsburg Castle was built at the latest between the 2nd century AD (Emperor Hadrian) and 351 AD (Germanic invasions). However, based on the location and shape of the complex, as well as a Gallic coin find, historians consider it possible that a predecessor building dates back to Celts and dates back to as early as 100 BC. It cannot be ruled out that the building was further expanded in the late Carolingian period; certain features of the work on the chamber gate suggest this.[3] In 1355, Count Arnold of Homburg sold half of a rock in the Waldfischbach court, called Bunensteyn, to Count Walram II of Zweibrücken and allowed him to build a castle on the rock and a town at its foot, although this never came to fruition.[4] The original name has not been recorded. The name "Heidelsburg" is etymologically related to "Heiden" (heathens) and only arose in the Middle Ages, when the building had already been derelict for centuries. The forest survey (description) of Waldfischbach mentions the ruins around 1600.

If you want to know how the rocks were named, you should read the history of the rock hiking trail, see https://www.felsenwanderweg.de/die-geschichte-zur-entstehung-des-felsenwanderweg/

At this point, a thank you to the supervisors/organizers of the rock hiking trail: the trail was in very good condition in September 2024, everything was in tip-top condition and signposted, and the bridge has also been completely renovated.
