The Rabenswald family hiking trail is a great activity for families with children.

In 1564, Georg II Vitzthum von Eckstedt built the Renaissance castle Kannawurf on the estate, which had been in the family since 1539; there were also three other manors in the village. Inscriptions on doors and windows date from between 1563 and 1565. Instead of a medieval moated castle, a three-wing complex was built around an almost square inner courtyard by around 1570, the fourth side of which is closed off by a shield wall with a central round tower. A row of dormer windows decorates the roof. With this form of the so-called castle type, Georg II Vitzthum cited the construction of the new Dresden residential palace of Elector Moritz of Saxony, in whose service he was a marshal, which began around 1547. Owned by the Thuringian Monument Preservation Center and the Thuringian Artists' House since 2007, the partially renovated castle is now used for cultural events. Source: Wikipedia

It's a bit out of the way but a short visit is fine...a lot of investment has been made in recent years

beautiful castle which is currently being renovated

There is a Touringen stamp here.

Was closed today. A pity.

Very nice little ruin in the forest

Well-preserved castle ruins. Reachable quite quickly from the local car park.
