ペヒブルンの洞窟・トップ11

Great castle. Viewed from the outside. There is a great path along the left side of the castle, where you come out at the top and go back down via the stairs.

Very beautiful castle. Unfortunately, a tour is only possible on Sundays at 3:30 p.m. as part of a guided tour. Unfortunately, this is not so practical with a small child. The beer garden also only opens on Sundays, but already at 2 p.m.

Waldershof Castle is privately owned. It can only be viewed from the outside. Probably built around 1100 as a moated castle (the builder is unknown), the castle stands on a basalt chimney on the outskirts of Waldershof, right next to the town hall. The current appearance only gives an incomplete impression of its original size and appearance. The mighty round building was a moated castle, which was surrounded to the south and west by the castle pond, which is now almost dry, and by the Kösseinebach. To the north, it was probably protected from attacks by ramparts. The mighty tower on the northeast corner, which was demolished in 1823, offered a wide view of the Waldershof valley. After secularization, the castle was declared state property on December 29, 1802 by Elector Max Josef of Bavaria, along with the Waldsassen monastery, which owned it for centuries, and used as the judge's residence. The state sold the castle on September 16, 1805.

Very well maintained facility and beautifully modernized.

Jagged rocks that invite easy climbing. Since they are a bit off the trail, it's easy to miss them. Two narrow paths lead from the hiking trail to the rocks

A little off the path is this stone formation.

Falkenberg Castle was a highlight for me. It is located on a high rock massif in the center of Falkenberg. In the complex there is a hotel and, among other things, a museum for exhibitions. The castle has been renovated in a modern way and has not lost its medieval flair.
