マルクトローダッハの洞窟・トップ20

There is a warning about dogs running loose 😭

The beer garden opposite is highly recommended; everything just fits together there.

Even though it is a steep climb, the path is definitely worth it for hikers interested in history.

Schmölz Castle is located in the Schmölz part of the Küps market town in the Upper Franconian district of Kronach in Bavaria. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schloss_Schm%C3%B6lz

For information on the Heunischenburg, see the following Wikipedia article: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heunischenburg and the following website http://www.landschaftsmuseum.de/Seiten/Ausgrab/Aus-Heunbg.htm

If you take a close look at the next mountain north of the Heunischenburg, the Rotschreuther Berg, you will undoubtedly see that there must have been a fortification here at the extreme south-western corner. In any case, from a little further away you can see a notch in the mountain, which, when viewed up close, turns out to be a moat with spoil heaps on the slopes. It certainly cannot be a sandstone quarry, like many you find in the Kronach area. The location and the transport routes would be completely untypical for that. I cannot say whether the moat on the Rotschreuther Berg had anything to do with the Heunischenburg. The Rotschreuther Berg is about 2 km from the Heunischenburg as the crow flies and was clearly visible, at least when there was no forest.

Oberlangenstadt Castle was only built in the 19th century in the English Gothic style. Despite its young history, it is one of the most beautiful buildings in the Kronach district.
