ディシンゲンの洞窟・トップ20

The ruins now have great information boards on which you can find the history of the castle and its builders as well as all kinds of information on the subject of castles. Highly recommended and brand new! Great photorealistic representations of the castle in its original state!

Seldom seen such a cool castle. It's privately owned and you can actually walk around alone inside. It's really worth a trip.

The facility is not in operation and can only be viewed from the outside.

Impressive ruins with beautiful views.

very well preserved castle with restaurant

Very very nice, Information board with castle plan, what is what, I liked that very much definitely worth a detour

I think driving better in winter or spring very overgrown in July and since it hasn't rained for a long time, partly very loose soil

Thurn and Taxis: The Castle It is originally a tower-fortified castle from the Middle Ages: "Schloss Trugenhofen" is built on Griesfelsen. The princes of Thurn and Taxis choose the "Hohe Schloss" (521 m above sea level) as their summer residence and call it "Schloss" from 1819 Taxis". The princes come here to the Härtsfeld by Danube boat and stagecoach, mainly from May to September. When the flag flies, the prince is there! A tradition at Thurn und Taxis to this day: a flag on the castle tower (1857) shows that the prince is present. From all four points of the compass, avenues lead directly to the destination - in the past there were poplars, today chestnuts. Ever since the princely house bought the castle and "Markttischingen" (Dischingen) for 150,000 guilders in 1734, there has been a lot of expansion: up to 400 people stayed here in the 18th and 19th centuries; in summer the permanent staff included: castle administrator, building inspector, Gardener, court clerk, head stable master... The latter is responsible for 90 horses.A small kingdom in itself - with extensive grounds, its own castle chapel and the English Forest.Many architectural styles - from Renaissance to Baroque, Rococo and Classicism to Neo-Gothic - can be recognized.
