nice little ruin, right next to the fisherman's hut

Beautiful castle right on the castle pond of Jägersburg

The landmark of Jägersburg is the Gustavsburg. On the upper floor there is a museum on the history of Gustavsburg and the hunting lodge built under Duke Christian IV of Palatinate Zweibrücken. https://www.homburg.de/index.php/tourismus-neu

Impressive part of the old castle complex

Nice place with some views for a stopover.

Not much is left of the small castle, but a hike through the beautiful autumn forest is worth it!

This valley castle lies just 12 meters above the water level of the Lambsbach on a sandstone block, the Malafel. It is one of the smallest castles in the Saarland and was restored in its historic form between 1975 and 1980. Based on excavation finds, it is assumed that a refuge castle already existed in the 10th century and that a solid one-story house took over the protection of an important road to Landstuhl in the 11th century. Not much is left of the former keep. The remains of the wall of the former tower and the castle wall, which have been restored, are clearly visible. Certainly no longer the magnificent building today, but definitely worth a Sunday excursion due to its enchanted valley location, especially since there is a small fish pond, the Merwoog, with the associated fisherman's hut in the immediate vicinity.

With the help of the drawings you can get a small impression of what it looked like in the past
