Kauzenburg Castle was built around 1200 for the Counts of Sponheim. The small town of Bad Kreuznach, with its ring of walls, grew up around the castle. Over the centuries, the castle expanded into a veritable fortress with a palace. It reached its greatest extent around 1650. Powerful outworks were built around the palace. The great era of Kauzenburg came to an abrupt end when French troops, during the War of Conquest, blew it up in 1689 and burned it to the ground, leaving only the cellar standing. It wasn't until the 19th century that a kind of "manor house"—a grand bourgeois country estate—was built on the site of the ruins. This had to make way in the early 1970s when the architect Gottfried Böhm combined the remaining ruins with a new architectural design reminiscent of castle battlements—a style also used elsewhere. For a long time, the surviving vaulted cellar served as the venue for popular medieval banquets. The restaurant closed a few years ago; today, a catering service leases the premises and offers it for events. Anyone walking around the grounds and the castle can still get a sense of its former grandeur.
