The Margrave's Castle is a Renaissance building with a fascinating heritage. Acquired in 1588 by Margrave Jakob III, it became the site of the Emmendingen Religious Colloquy and later the official residence of the bailiffs. Today, it is a cultural center: concerts and cabaret performances take place in the castle cellar, while the city history exhibition and the Hirsmüller Photography Museum bring history and tradition to life. Located just steps from the old town, the castle seamlessly blends historical architecture with modern culture.

The first lord of the castle was Hildebrand Spenlin from Breisach. The word "Spenlin" means "little shavings" (from a plane). In Alemannic usage, Spenlin is called "Spänle." Without the diminutive, Span = Spon. The castle is mentioned in documents as Spenlins Eck, Span-Egge, or the Sponeck.

There is almost always something going on here in summer...

Welcome to the beer garden when the weather is nice. Of course, there are also French guests.

The St. Severin ruins are located on the eastern slope of the Mauracher Mountain, an elevation in the municipality of Denzlingen in northern Breisgau. One of Denzlingen's first places of worship was probably located here 1,000 years ago. The ruin bears the year 1497 on the Gothic door arch. Already in the Middle Ages one often heard the name of the "eclesia in Muron" or "eclesia in Gloter", church in Maurach" or in the parish of Glotter. However, the patronage was first mentioned in 1488, when the church of St. Serverin was called "S. Severini in Murach" is mentioned in writing. A relief plate made of red sandstone, which depicts St. Severin as a bishop and was found within the church ruins, is now in the Catholic Jakobuskirche in Denzlingen. Until the Reformation, pilgrimages took place regularly on the Mauracher Mountain. The Reformation, which was carried out in the towns of the Margraves of Baden in 1556, ended the pilgrimages and processions. 1575 It is mentioned that the margrave, after accepting the change of religion, banned pilgrimages to the chapel on the Mauracherberg and closed the little church. However, this probably did not stop many believers from continuing to pray in St. Severin, as the inscriptions on the relief panel from 1771 show. Today only a very dilapidated ruin remains of the old pilgrimage center on the Mauracher Berg, which was once the mother church of the Glottertal. https://www.alemannische-seiten.de/deutschland/denzlingen_st-severin-denzlingen.php

Landeck Castle, also called Schadelandeck, is the ruin of a spur castle at 285 m above sea level. NN on a limestone rock in the village of the same name, Landeck, a district of Teningen, north of the town of Emmendingen in the Emmendingen district in Baden-Württemberg. The ruin is one of the few well-preserved ruins in the Breisgau. The time of origin of the upper and lower castle can be dated to around 1269. In 1260, "Dietrich, the Vogt von Landecke", a follower of the lords of Geroldseck, was mentioned in a document.

The settlement of the landscape in Freiamt has probably in the 11./12. Century during the great clearing epoch of the Black Forest. Even then, people knew that there could be silver ore veins between the rocks in the federal sandstone in the Brettenbach valley. So the Zähringer dukes took favorable land and pushed out the smaller nobility who were busy with the clearing. The Zähringers appointed a able subject a knight of Keppenbach and ordered him to build a castle to protect the silver ore mines. This finally reaches a length of 200 meters and a width of 35 meters. However, the yield of silver was lower than hoped. Mining was abandoned around 1800 at the latest. The first written mention of the Knights of Keppenbach was in 1161. Hartmut von Keppenbach is listed as a witness in a purchase deed from Tennebach. Since the age of the castle is not known, it can be concluded that Keppenbach Castle already existed at this time.

The ruins of St. Severin's Chapel are located on the eastern spur of the Mauracher Berg. It was built in 1497 by the St. Margarethen von Waldkirch monastery. Excavations by the University of Freiburg in recent years have not only documented the foundations of an older church, but also a large number of burials. The evaluation of the written sources has shown that the church was probably the Glottertal parish church until 1466. Only then did the Blasius chapel there receive full parish rights. The dating of the wall and ditch fortifications found on the Mauracher Berg is still open. An origin in prehistory is just as conceivable as an origin in the Middle Ages. But it is also possible to reuse an older fortification in the Middle Ages. For this reason, it cannot yet be said with certainty that there is a castle on the Mauracher Berg.
