Lichtenroth Castle on the Engelsfelsen (Angel Rock) A six-meter-deep and over ten-meter-wide moat draws attention to the Lichtenroth Castle above Oberfreiung, between Pielenhofen and Duggendorf. The steep walls of the Engelfelsen (Angel Rock) secure the approximately 40-meter-long and up to eight-meter-wide area on three sides; from the rocky peak, one enjoys a magnificent view over the Naab Valley. Where the access path crosses a rampart, there used to be a gate. The highest part of the former castle complex is a narrow ridge above the moat, on which the remains of a residential building can be seen. At approximately 12 to 15 meters, it corresponds to the typical size of a late Romanesque stone house. There are no visible traces of the keep left. It presumably stood near the rocky peak and served as an observation tower. The date of the castle's construction is unknown; it is assumed to have been in the 11th or 12th century. We only learn of their existence after their demise, when Lord Jordan of Murach, a feudal lord of the Bishop of Regensburg and the Lords of Laaber, sold the "Burgstall zu Lichtenrode" to the nuns of Pielenhofen in 1297. The name, also recorded as "Lichtnroth," indicates a clearing area belonging to the Bishopric of Regensburg. Source: Burgensteige information board

Nice rest area

On the way from Heitzenhofen towards Kallmünz in front of the Birnthaler inn, the Kallmünz castle can be seen dreamily between the trees several times. In backlighting, it is also reflected in the Naab.

beautiful path for hikers and cyclists

An extremely steep and difficult descent follows here. Sure-footedness is required!

From the bridge you have great views of the Naab and the wooded river banks. It's quite a sight!

Be careful; the steps are very high and each step is different from the last. Otherwise, a charming short climb up to the castle with interesting views of Kallmünz and the castle.

Herluch, especially at dusk. However, the cycle path is very heavily used in summer.
