ヒルシュアウの洞窟・トップ20

In the 12th century, the castle of the same name was built on a spur above present-day Bad Liebenzell. The castle consisted of several buildings and a thick curtain wall with an integrated keep. The dry moat now serves as a parking lot. The keep and curtain wall have been preserved and can be visited during opening hours. Today, the castle serves as a conference center and restaurant. From the keep, there is a far-reaching view over the surrounding valleys, which were monitored from the castle.

With a beautiful view, it is a good place to rest

The castle was restored in 2009-2011 and houses the Dätzinger Local History Museum. In the castle courtyard there is a mighty sequoia tree and several small round fountains

Beautiful castle. Unfortunately, the beautiful courtyard with the old fountain is private property. But in the lower corridor you can sit nicely on the walls. Sun on your face and just enjoy the view

Very nice way up to Zavelstein Castle

the castle fountain is the first on the tour the tour is about 2 km long At each fountain there is a plaque with the history of the fountain is very interesting

the keep is 28 meters high and was built around 1200

In addition to the enchanting view of the surrounding area, the castle also offers a number of mysteries: missing maidens, mountains of bones and a giant. But it's best for you to find out for yourself. The castle tower is open to the public every day in good weather, but closed in winter due to the risk of slipping. The restaurant is currently closed (March 2022), but the operators want to reopen it soon. Maybe the maidens and the giant will help...
