The castle ruins are located in the center of Nohfelden, with a beautiful castle courtyard and an elevator up to the castle ruins.

Can you take a short rest

A very nice photo opportunity

Since the @ Keo is right

Interesting castle. In the immediate vicinity is also a butcher's shop/inn and the Bruunen for resting.

Unfortunately the tower is not open.

The spur castle was first mentioned in 1285. Its builder, Wilhelm Bossel II vom Stein, who came from Oberstein an der Nahe, had to grant the Count of Veldenz the right to open his castle in the deed. After the vom Stein family died out, the castle passed to the Counts of Veldenz. In the middle of the 15th century, the dukes of Palatinate-Zweibrücken acquired the castle and the dominion of Nohfelden. Until the French Revolution, the castle was the seat of a Zweibrücken bailiff. In 1490 the castle witnessed one of the saddest chapters in the history of Palatinate-Zweibrücken. After the death of Duke Louis the Black, his sons Kaspar and Alexander ruled together for a year when Alexander had his older brother deposed by force. He was taken to Veldenz Castle and remained there – even after the death of his brother – in captivity until his death in 1527. In the many wars of the 17th century, the castle did not go unmolested, but was always maintained. In 1661 Duke Friedrich died at the castle. In 1804 the castle was declared French national property and sold to the Cetto brothers from St. Wendel. After that, the castle complex, which was now used to procure building materials, fell into disrepair.
