A very interesting castle ruin. Its construction began between 1310 and 1320. In 1332, Ludwig III took up residence in the castle and from then on called himself Walpode von der Neuerburg, Lord of Reichenstein. In 1523, the castle came into the possession of the Counts of Wied, who had it destroyed in 1618 after it had already fallen into considerable disrepair. Today, the Reichenstein castle ruins are privately owned and therefore not normally open to the public. Those wishing to visit the castle can book a guided tour through the local support association (by telephone). Additionally, the castle ruins are opened to the public on certain dates (during the summer). These dates are announced online by the support association.

You can relax up here on the lounger and let your gaze wander across the valley. This is so beautiful....

From the former location of the castle you could previously see the movements on the two trade routes Cologne-Leipzig and Cologne-Frankfurt.

The area indicates an early historical rampart. The fact that there was a burial mound nearby until 1933 speaks for Celtic settlement. No documents about the castle could be found; apparently it no longer existed around 1300. What you can see are two (?) moats. Source: Gieleroth Chronicle

An impressive tower from the outside. Unfortunately it is locked and therefore the tower cannot be visited from the inside.

Unfortunately, it can only be visited by telephone arrangement. The castle is privately owned. It's a shame for hiking tourism, as you can't spontaneously take a closer look at the castle.

The turning point on many tours, either into the Wiedtal or out and up the mountain to Asbach

Parts of the ruin were used to build other buildings. Above there is a bench and table as well as a relaxation lounger. The footpath (not the channel) was overgrown as of June 2021, but is still accessible. The Wied previously flowed around the castle hill on 3 sides and now runs south. https://www.kloster-ehrenstein.de/burganlage-ehrenstein/die-burg.html Ehrenstein is mentioned for the first time in 1331 when Rorich von Uetgenbach called himself "Herr zu Ehrenstein". It is believed that the castle was built by the lords of Uetgenbach and expanded in the 15th century under the rule of the Nesselrode. In 1632 it was largely destroyed by Swedish troops. Since then the castle has been in ruins.

The "Hangburg" Ehrenstein Castle was first mentioned in 1331 and is close to the Ehrenstein Monastery. Worth seeing and now accessible!

The exact age cannot be determined, but it was mentioned in a document in the 14th century. The former hilltop castle was only fully renovated in 2014/2015 and is a wonderful excursion destination! Once at the top you will find a lot about the history of the castle and also relaxation loungers, benches and seating for a rest! In addition, the view is just great!

Wonderful view from the castle hill over the village and the Wiedtal. Well preserved keep, unfortunately locked. There are different ways up to the mountain. One paved path from Burgstrasse and a narrow, steep hiking path from Ritterstrasse.

The church windows are super nice and super old.

If you keep to the right when visiting the castle, you can crawl through a small opening and climb the castle. I find it very interesting that the rear tower has a proper platform at the top.
