ラウシェンバーグの洞窟・トップ20

Komoot led me here

Especially when the weather is nice and clear, the view over Marburg and the surrounding area is a real delight.

Amöneburg is located about 16 km east of Marburg on a basalt cone that can be seen from afar. The name stands for both the small town and the castle on the Amöneberg with a height of 365m. It is an offshoot of the Vogelsberg volcanism in the east of Hesse. The climb to the highest point is up to 16% steep. The view in clear weather is remarkable.

The small and beautiful town of Amöneburg is located on a basalt cone. There is a lot to discover and experience here. It is a pleasure to stay here, great.

Steep climb which is rewarded with a great view.

A beautiful photo opportunity with a few benches that invite you to take a rest. Here you can relax and unwind. You have a wonderful view

Mellnau Castle can be seen from far away. If you walk along the "Cuckoo Trail" you can enjoy the view from different sides. From the castle itself you have a wonderful view in all directions.

The now dilapidated Mellnau Castle is currently only accessible to a limited extent, but it is still worth a visit. The first written mention of the imposing castle dates back to 1263, where it was referred to as "Elenhouch". It may have been built by Siegfried III. commissioned by Eppstein, the Archbishop of Mainz. He may have built it around 1248 as a replacement for the destroyed Hollende Castle. The 19 meter high keep, which can still be admired today, was completed in 1331 and is therefore almost seven hundred years old.
