This castle also deserves attention.

The ruins have a very special character due to their construction – you can still really feel the connection between nature and medieval architecture.

In any case, it's a huge building. More defiant than beautiful.

Beautifully restored clinker building with sandstone elements.

The town is located in the oldest prehistoric settlement area in the Main Valley. In a very small area, there is continuous evidence of settlement, which stretches from the Paleolithic period through the Hallstatt period to the Carolingian period. The name of the town was already borne by the fortress built around the year 1000 on a hill, a "light rock", and destroyed in the Peasants' War in 1525. Duke Otto I of Andechs-Merania had his market town of Lichtenfels fortified in 1231, which can probably be interpreted as an indication that town rights had already been granted. A place on the Main and centrally located on old streets was deliberately chosen for the founding of Lichtenfels. The spacious market square, the center of the town, where all the alleys and paths converged, was and is well suited for weekly and annual markets.

The neo-Gothic Ketschendorf Castle is located in the Coburg district of Ketschendorf at the foot of the Buchberg. The Baroness von Stolzenau had it built in the middle of an extensive park at the beginning of the 19th century. The castle is one of the most perfect buildings in the neo-Gothic belt of Coburg and has had nine different owners. From 1956 onwards it was used as a youth hostel, which was closed on December 1, 2010. In 2013 the Coburg company Kaeser Kompressoren acquired the property and had it converted into a seminar and training center. Source: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schloss_Ketschendorf

Directly in front of the Rotenhan ruins there are two nice rest areas.
