If the battery of the e-bike starts to run low, there is a free charging station opposite the lock, which really impressed me.

First mentioned in 1367 and still well preserved today https://www.burg-wolfsegg.de

Wolfsegg Castle is a well-preserved medieval castle, with origins dating back to the late 13th century. Today, the castle houses a museum that offers insights into medieval life, including everyday objects, archaeological finds and military equipment. The Knights' Hall is decorated with wall paintings from the 15th century. The castle is also regularly used for cultural events. According to an old legend, the "White Lady" is said to haunt the castle walls, a mysterious apparition that always gives rise to mysterious stories.

Regendorf Castle The Lords of Regendorf, initially referred to as "Lords of Regeldorf", were first mentioned at the beginning of the 13th century. In 1490, Hans Regeldorfer of Regeldorf and Wolfsegg is entered in the Land Register. In 1475, he appears in the entourage of Duke Ludwig IX at the Landshut wedding. Hans Regeldorfer was married twice, he left behind two daughters and no male descendants, and so Regendorf passed into other hands as a male fief after his death. In 1515, the castle was rebuilt for the then owner, the Regensburg Imperial Mint Master Martin Lerch. He had to have a crucifixion group erected for the manslaughter of a mint clerk in 1513. This is now in the apse of the Minorite Church in Regensburg. In 1699, Franziska Adelheid von Braittenburg sold the Regendorf castle and manor to Philipp Anton Leopold Freiherr von Oberndorff, who came from the Upper Palatinate line of the Oberndorff family. They rebuilt the castle around 1840 and added a floor. In 1884, Regendorf Castle was sold to the Imperial Councilor Freiherr von Faber in Stein near Nuremberg and later to the Counts of Faber-Castell. In 1916, it was purchased from them by the royal Bavarian treasurer Eduard von Harnier. As the von Harnier family was known to the National Socialist authorities as anti-National Socialists, they had to vacate the castle in 1936 and sell it to the city of Regensburg. Regendorf Castle is a complex dating back to 1515 and consists of two parallel wings that are connected in the middle by an intermediate building. The main building is a three-story hipped roof building with an H-shaped floor plan. The eastern wing has two four-storey round towers and a garden staircase. The castle chapel at the north end of the east wing dates from 1688. The former stables are a two-storey stable barn with a half-hipped roof from 1830. Remains of the terraced landscape garden with staircase from the 18th century can be found to the west of the castle. The park enclosure, with a fence to the south, otherwise a stone wall with stone pillars, dates from around 1840. Source: Excerpts from www.wikipedia.de

Idyllic place with many sights

Spindlhof Castle Spindlhof Castle was first recorded on a map from the Regenstauf Nursing Office in 1597. The business, initially called “Mühlhof”, was owned by Hans Spindler, who coins the current name. In 1691, the Spindlhof, which was expanded to include a forest and several pieces of land and was owned by Hans Christoph Freiherr von Diemantstein, was granted land estate freedom and thus became a noble seat. Over time, the Spindlhof experienced a number of changes in ownership. It should be particularly noted that it was not a permanent family property, but that many noble barons coveted the building and had it expanded and changed according to their own ideas at the time of ownership. The Spindlhof experienced its earliest clerical influences around 1800, while it was owned by the auxiliary bishop Valentin Anton von Schneid, who had a chapel built adjacent to the main castle. The castle boasted its largest property holdings in 1918, when it and 400 hectares of land were sold to the Argentine diplomat and aircraft manufacturer Hermann von Frémery. When the Frémery family returned to Argentina in 1947, they offered the Spindlhof to the then Archbishop Michael Buchberger for use, whereupon it was looked after by the Mallersdorf sisters until 1969. Spindlhof Castle has been owned by the Episcopal See of Regensburg since 1955. Spindlhof Castle consists of six interconnected building complexes. The neo-Gothic main palace, which was rebuilt between 1894 and 1901, merges into the north wing on the north side of the building, which was built in the mid-1950s. In the west, the main castle is connected to the hall building, built in 1999, which leads into the south wing housing the castle chapel (1791), which was completed in the 1970s. In addition, the Albertus Magnus Church was built in 2004, which, in addition to its own entrance, is also connected to the castle chapel. The interior of the castle is now largely used as meeting rooms. The largest room in the Spindlhof is the so-called plenum. The Belétage on the second floor houses seven halls from the late historicist period, most of which have been preserved in their original form. The styles, which are also reflected in the furniture of the halls, range from neo-rococo to Gothic and Moorish influences. Source: Excerpts from www.wikipedia.de
