エーバースバッハ＝ムスバッハの洞窟・トップ13

The Hatzenturm

The castle is privately owned and cannot be visited. However, a walk through the castle courtyard is always worthwhile.

Beautiful complex, definitely worth a tour.

Bachritterburg, Kanzach The history of the Bach Knights can probably be described in close unity with the genealogy of the Lords of Pflummern but also with the ruling situation in Kanzach. “Lords of Kanzach” are mentioned several times in documents from the 12th to 14th centuries. First it is Bernardus and his son Ortolfus who are named as witnesses in documents from Bishop Otto of Constance and Duke Henry of Bavaria and Saxony for the Salem monastery in 1169 and 1171. With the next mention in 1227, the Kanzach local nobility probably moved to Pflummern. Kanzach is subsequently a branch of the Pflummer family castle. In the document from 1227, Bilgerinum de Pphlumnar and his son Ortolfum de Cantza are named as witnesses. Bilgerinum (vulgo) Peregrinus, the knight from and to Pflummern (from the Chronicle of the Lords of Pflummern, Aloys von Pflummern 1795) is considered the progenitor of the Lords of Pflummern. This knight's seat was donated to the Reichenau Monastery by the then Swabian Duke Berchthold, who had his seat on the Bussen. He was later freed from this and given his own nobility. In 1180 Peregrinus was steward to Emperor Philip, the Duke of Swabia. Peregrinus is considered a co-founder of the monasteries of Salem, St. Gallen and Heiligkreuztal (written down by Father Bucelini, a well-known historian and Benedictine monk from Weingarten Abbey). After his father's death (1227), his son Ortolph also became steward (to Emperor Friedrich II).

The tower can be visited at any time, the ascent is very adventurous. The key hangs on the left above the door. The light switch is located in the entrance area of the tower. Very important: switch off the light again after the visit, lock the door and hang the key back!

This is really worth seeing. Too bad the tavern was closed.

Well maintained and very spacious

Very tasty ice cream. Sitting outside possible
