ラウフェンブルク（バーデン）の洞窟・トップ19

The ruins of Alt-Thierstein Castle are situated on a wooded ridge in the Laufental valley, near the border with the canton of Basel-Landschaft. This medieval castle was likely built in the 12th century by the Counts of Thierstein and served to control important trade routes. Today, remnants of the walls, the keep, and sections of the curtain wall are still visible. The site offers a beautiful view over the Laufental valley. The ruins are freely accessible and a popular destination for hikers and history enthusiasts.

It's picturesquely situated and worth a visit, but a good level of fitness is required. Unfortunately, the upper access is currently closed due to a landslide (a fir tree fell and swept away the access steps directly in front of the ruins). Therefore, you have to take the longer route over the bridge further down.

Beserstein Castle Ruins, a popular destination for bikers, hikers, and joggers, offers a beautiful vantage point, a barbecue area, castle ruins, and two WWII bunkers. There's plenty to see and discover.

Wonderful view in a very beautiful location. There are tables and buckets for a picnic. It has a special atmosphere if you go along with it. The board with explanations of the history is very clearly written.

Especially beautiful in winter 🐾❄️🐾

Very beautiful viewpoint above Villigen, with Alpine pointer, barbecue area, remains of an old castle and two bunkers. The view is fantastic when the weather is good! Viewing angle of around 270°.

Interesting ruin - if you are in the area, it is worth a visit.
