リースベルクの洞窟・トップ15

ヴォーブルク城跡はデレモンタインの上方にそびえ立ち、谷の印象的な眺めを提供しています。中世の城は、おそらく12世紀に建てられ、後に放棄されました。今日でも、壁の残骸と構造の一部が残っています。この場所は、特別で、ほとんど神秘的な雰囲気を醸し出しています。ハイキングコースで容易にアクセスでき、この遺跡は自然愛好家や歴史愛好家にとって人気の目的地です。近くのヴォーブルク礼拝堂と組み合わせることで、ジュラ山脈でのやりがいのある小旅行になります。

1934/35年には、城はすでにひどく荒廃していたに違いありません。そのため、ACVバーゼルは廃墟を取得し、スイス城協会と協力してユースホステルとして再建しました。失業中の若者たちは、自分たちの夢の城を建てました。今日、それは主にグループや学校のクラスが、いくつかの高貴な日のための拠点として利用しています。

Zwingen Castle is picturesquely situated at the entrance to the Laufental valley. This well-preserved medieval complex once served as an administrative center and customs station. Today, the tower, the ring walls, and the village center define the historic townscape. It is freely accessible and makes a worthwhile stop for hikes along the Birs river and short visits.

The view from the top of the valley is breathtaking, and you can see far and wide. Just the right amount of time before the descent to Delémont.

A short, entertaining visit to the complex before heading straight to Laufen.

Rotberg Castle is located on the recently signposted Castle Magic Route 114 and is worth every visit, especially for an overnight stay. Although the castle is a Swiss youth hostel, it can also be rented privately: for weddings, anniversaries, etc. The entire castle is also available with or without catering. It is closed during the winter months. The shared rooms have been recently renovated. For only two or a few people, it is best to contact the castle directly; the tower room for two, for example, is not listed online.

Now a Youth Hostel, but a cool place to visit and a nice castle

For a long time, there was an old paper factory, known as "Papiri" for short, directly behind the castle. It used the water of the Birs. Unimaginable from today's perspective, large parts of the castle complex were demolished and rebuilt to expand the factory. The former factory has now been demolished and a huge playground is being planted in its place. The mighty chimney will remain in the middle of the greenery as a visible reminder of the Papiri. The management buildings have been renovated. The rooms are rented out to commercial enterprises. This means that Zwingen Castle will once again have a more spacious environment and will once again be the focus of the Birs landscape.
