ライヒェンベルク城の美しい眺め

The hilltop castle was built between 1230 and 1231 by Margrave Hermann V of Baden, who, like his brother, was a loyal supporter of the Hohenstaufen Emperor Frederick II. It is said to have been closely related to Ebersberg Castle, built at the same time in what is now the Auenwald forest, and the upper castle in Besigheim. The dimensions, furnishings, and existing stonemasonry marks of the three castles are identical. In the Middle Ages, administrative centers were usually located in castles. Reichenberg Castle, for example, was also a so-called ministerial castle. The knights Wolfram and Berthold von Reichenberg are mentioned as early as 1230. Reichenberg was therefore the official seat and thus also the administrative center of the surrounding areas. From 1293 onwards, the Sturmfeder von Oppenweiler family resided in the castle as ministerials. In the 19th century, the castle was the seat of the forestry office of the Kingdom of Württemberg, among others. Karl von Schiller, a son of Friedrich Schiller, worked there as a district forester from 1822 to 1833. In 1888, the castle was leased to the Samaritan Foundation, which operated a social facility there to care for people with disabilities. In 1929, the Samaritan Foundation acquired Grafeneck Castle near Gomadingen and relocated the home there. In 1930, the castle was leased to the Evangelical Society of Stuttgart, which operated a shelter for Stuttgart prostitutes there until the 1950s, as prostitution had increased sharply in Stuttgart due to the general hardship after the First World War. The Evangelical Society of Stuttgart subsequently converted the castle back into a residential home for people with disabilities.

Once you've come out of the valley, you've already completed the longest climb. It's definitely worth taking a look back. All you have to do on the way down is slow down!

Interestingly designed fountain of the mineral water spring in Rietenau with all kinds of information, where you can also fill up water directly.

Rebuilt "Wengertschützenhäusle", as the original house had to be demolished during the vineyard consolidation. There is a wonderful view from the terrace.

Viewpoint on the Föhrenberg with a wonderful panoramic view that, depending on the weather, extends as far as the Swabian Alb. A board provides information about what can be seen in which direction. There are also places to sit for a rest.

Small lake between Karlshof and Wüstenbachhof. Located slightly higher than the road, so it is not directly visible.
