One of the oldest castles in Franconian Switzerland. The exact year of construction is uncertain as there are no detailed written reports or investigations. Count Gozwin expanded Gößweinstein Castle into a fortress before 1062. In a written message from Bamberg Cathedral Dean Poppo to Bishop Gunther from 1062 it says “his stone (=fortress) was built with the greatest effort”. During this time, Counts Gozwin and Hermann von Habsberg fought a devastating feud.

The oriental building, which served as a rural hermitage, is also particularly attractive. Opposite it is the so-called 'kitchen building' - a castle café this summer.

Entry (Aug 2021) 4 EUR for adults. The castle is constantly being renovated, but the entrance fee is not sufficient. Nevertheless, the lord of the castle is constantly trying to maintain and expand the attractiveness of the castle. So also with a newly planned viewing platform.

The highlight of the Streitburg is the well-preserved dungeon. The views of Steitberg are also fantastic, a worthwhile excursion and hiking destination.

The history of Pottenstein can be traced back to the first documented mention in 918. Pottenstein Castle was built around 1060 by Count Boto von Pottenstein (1028–1104; Aribone). In 1323 the place received city rights. The city of Pottenstein was the upper bailiff of the Bamberg monastery. In a town fire in 1736, 60 houses were destroyed and the town church was damaged. Since the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss of 1803 the place belongs to Bavaria. In the course of the administrative reforms in the Kingdom of Bavaria, the municipality was created with the municipal edict of 1818. Source Wikipedia

The view over Streitberg and the Wiesent valley from the Streitberg castle ruins, a remnant of a high medieval aristocratic castle, is simply magnificent.

Very picturesquely situated, overlooked by the castle enthroned on a steep cliff. Recommended: hike with the red cross into the upper Püttlachtal.

Nice to dream, especially in the evening light. Absolute eye-catcher. We would have liked to marvel at the inner courtyard, but it will certainly work on the next visit.
