Fantastically beautiful view.. priceless

Above Wilhelmshöhe Castle lies the artificial castle ruins of the Löwenburg. From a distance it appears like a romantic knight's castle from the Middle Ages. However, it was only built between 1793 and 1801 as the “ancestral castle” of Landgrave Wilhelm IX. of Hesse-Kassel, the later Elector Wilhelm I. His court architect Heinrich Christoph Jussow implemented the bold plans. The Löwenburg was not a fortress, but a pleasure palace, whose princely living quarters and rich furnishings with historical furniture, paintings, tapestries, glasses, bronzes as well as a magnificent collection of weapons and medieval stained glass windows reflect the great passion for collecting of its builder. The immediate surroundings of the castle were also included in the production by creating an ancient-looking castle garden, a vineyard, a tournament field and a zoo.

Great view over the Edersee to the castle

From the east side of the Edertalsperre the very beautiful place can be reached via the route with the blue dot. Likewise the pulpit view of the dam of the Edersee. Ascent and descent are quite sporty for the first few meters. But it's worth it. Also because of the wonderful jungle of the national park.

Woooow, like a movie set. The sight knocks every ambitious hiker's socks off 😍

The thrones on the pulpit are a nice idea - with a great view!

The pulpit with its four thrones and the refuge is a beautiful resting place with a wonderful view of the Edersee and Waldeck Castle.

Nice paths to the top, with a very steep incline
