Whether the view from the castle or from Bernkastel-Kues to the castle, both perspectives are worthwhile.

Great view across the Moselle to the castle. Landshut Castle is the ruins of a hilltop castle in Bernkastel-Kues in the Bernkastel-Wittlich district of Rhineland-Palatinate. Landshut Castle is located on the western slope of the Hunsrück above Bernkastel, a district of Bernkastel-Kues. It stands on the approximately 235 m above sea level[1] high castle hill, a northern spur of Mount Olympus (415 m above sea level).[1] The Moselle, flowing toward the castle from the southwest, turns northwest below the castle (approx. 107 m above sea level).[1] This allows travelers traveling upstream and downstream along the Moselle to see the castle on the horizon from afar.

Hunolstein Castle is the ruins of a hilltop castle at 395 m above sea level. NN in the district of Hunolstein in the municipality of Morbach in the Hunsrück. It is the former seat of the Hunolstein bailiffs and, according to legend, the seat of the Nibelung Hunold. The castle dates from the 12th century. It was conquered by Franz von Sickingen in 1522 and damaged so badly during the Thirty Years' War that it had to be abandoned in 1637. A round corner tower and remains of the surrounding walls have been preserved. The facility is around 40 meters long and is surrounded by a 1.30 meter thick curtain wall, which is up to eight meters high on the south side. The donjon used to stand on a quartzite rock, of which an approximately three meter high square wall remnant has been preserved. From there there is a view to the west into the valley of the Dhron or to the north to the Haardtkopf (658 m) near Gornhausen.

Landshut castle ruins, newly restored and now with gastronomy again.
