フロッセンビュルクの洞窟・トップ20

The ancestral home of the Lords of Liebenstein, who emerged from the middle of the 12th century. The building was built around 1100 on a rock spur made of "ice granite" above the Waldnaab. In 1430 the Hussites camped under the castle, and the castle has fallen into disrepair since the middle of the 17th century. After the city fire of 1814, the citizens of Tirschenreuth took many stones from the ruins. It is a relatively large complex; the few visible remains of the wall were recently excavated and renovated.

Beautiful circular walk around the castle ruins, which are worth a visit. Afterwards, we recommend a visit to the nearby museum cafe https://g.co/kgs/WCgcrBs

Beautifully prepared castle ruins with a drawbridge, exposed remains of walls and a castle chapel. The well-made information boards tell the story of the once proud castle. The oldest exposed stones date back to around 1200. Worth seeing and worth a detour.

In 1347, Emperor Ludwig the Bavarian had Schellenberg Castle, which was then called "Lug ins Land", built to protect against attacks from Bohemia. On July 12, 1498, the castle was stormed under the leadership of Captain Konrad von Wirsberg, who was in the service of the Margrave of Brandenburg. The castle was partially destroyed. Their owner, Knight Moritz von Guttenberg, was captured. The castle was never rebuilt.

An impressive ruin, worth visiting for the complex alone. But the magnificent views are also inspiring.

In addition to the great granite rocks, you can also catch wonderful views of the Schlossberg and the castle enthroned on it on the granite path.

Great view of the castle ruins from the back failure of a beautiful hiking trail
