ヴェルナースベルクの天然記念物・トップ20

Tanstein Castle stretches across the two westernmost castle rocks in the castle group. Both rocks used to be connected by a bridge. Today there are modern parapet walls on the rocks, which were placed arbitrarily during restoration work and do not convey any impression of the former castle buildings. The west rock was apparently built with tower-like buildings leaning against the rock. Evidence of this is given by beam holes and workings in the rock, as well as a large cistern, in which water was collected from the roofs. From this point you have a great view of the facility.

In the large castle complex you have several possibilities for a "gate view".

One of Dahn's landmarks. Very large and imposing castle complex.

Tip: come here during the week and enjoy the wonderful view. The popular viewing point is very busy when the weather is good and on weekends.

A place steeped in history with an interesting exhibition. The view from the castle is rewarding, the surroundings with the sandstone cliffs are beautiful.

Here you can stop off, enjoy the medieval atmosphere and the fantastic view from the terrace.

At the moment in times of Corona: entrance and exit separated. Disinfection of hands at the entrance is controlled. Lots of space in the courtyard. The benches and tables are not too narrow. Good selection of drinks and food. We ate schnitzel (nice and crispy), liver dumplings (fine) and tarte flambée (large and well topped). Everyone liked it. Recommendable.

Very nice castle complex. There is also a small restaurant inside and outside very nice. Magnificent views from the terrace and from the tower. Very interesting events in the castle courtyard in summer.
