オッフェンブルクの天然記念物・トップ20

In the 11th/12th century, the Zähringers built a castle on this site to protect the Kinzig Valley. In the 15th century, the castle was expanded to include defense towers. At the end of the 17th century, the castle was destroyed twice. In the 18th century, the current castle was built in the English style on the ruins of the old castle. Today, there is a youth hostel and a wine-producing farm here.

A court linden tree was a single, very old tree near the town. This was where the Thing, a council meeting, was held, where justice was also dispensed.

This historic building is in an exposed location between Kinzig and the hills of the Black Forest and offers beautiful views - it is also an eye-catcher itself.

Schützenhaus and animal enclosure can be found here with a beautiful view to the west.

The Brandeckkopf is located on the western edge of the Black Forest and is 685.8 m above sea level. NHN[1] the highest mountain in Offenburg. It is located in the district of Zell-Weierbach. On its summit is the 23 m[2] high Brandeck Tower, built in 1895 from stamped concrete, a lookout tower. The mountain is located in the middle of the 1897 hectare Brandeck nature reserve.

Breathtaking view over the Rhine Valley.

With good visibility you can see almost the entire Black Forest - from the Badnerhöhe in the north to the Blauen in the south, with Kandel, Feldberg and Belchen in between.

Part of the castle is open to the public during the day until 6 p.m., with the exception of the youth hostel building. The tower complex appears to be very well maintained. There is a wonderful view of the Kinzig valley, the Rhine plain and Offenburg.
