カールスドルフの洞窟・トップ12

The monastery was the house monastery and burial place of the Lords of Lobdeburg, the founding family.

The castle cafe is highly recommended. Delicious food and moderate prices in a pleasant atmosphere.

Nice viewpoint 👌

This castle is a little insider tip 👌 I also recommend a visit from the inside, the museum has been lovingly restored and the castle café rounds off the visit perfectly.😉 The entrance fee is there to restore and preserve the castle, which is something we like to do to preserve the culture.

Unfortunately, this castle cannot be visited.

Arnshaugk Castle was a strategically important point in the Orla region and the centre of the medieval Arnshaugk dominion in Orlagau. In the middle of the 13th century, a line of free lords of Lobdeburg near Jena named themselves after the castle, Otto von Lobdeburg-Arnshaugk. (Wikipedia)

The first building of the chapel was constructed around the year 1087.

Arnshaugk castle chapel It can be considered certain that the first building of the chapel, which is still preserved today as a rectangular building in the three surrounding walls rising to the west, was built around 1087 or was already under construction. This dating is based on the examination of two scaffolding timbers that were found in the masonry of the West Grebel, approx. 1.50 m apart. The year of construction could be determined both by dendrochronological age determination and by radiocarbon dating. The results of the investigations provided evidence to supplement and confirm documentary evidence. The Arnshangk chapel was under the original parish of Neunhofen. Coming from Saalfeld, the eastward expansion of German-Franconian settlers took place via Neunbofen further up the Orla. As a result of this expansion of the country, the indigenous Slavic population groups were Christianized. The chapel was first mentioned in the deed of foundation dated May 1, 1294.
