Taking a picture without people is difficult

From here you have a great view of the Hermannsdenkmal

A great place. For a small fee, you can climb the rocks if you're not afraid of heights. You can also celebrate Walpurgis Night here. There's also a beautiful small lake next to it.

For centuries, a hilltop castle stood atop Falkenberg in the Teutoburg Forest, one of the largest medieval dynastic castles in Westphalia. Falkenburg Castle once served as the seat of power in Lippe. But that was a long time ago. Before excavations began in 2004, Falkenburg Castle was just an inconspicuous ruin, a popular destination for Sunday family outings and hikes. No one would have guessed back then that such an impressive and imposing castle complex lay hidden underground. It was all the more wonderful to see how these ruins grew year after year, revealing their secrets. You can find more detailed information here: https://www.falkenburg-lippe.de/

A trip here is always worthwhile 😊

A beautiful nature experience. One wonders who arranged the stones like that. Unfortunately, the path was closed. (Opening hours until 6:00 PM).

The Falkenburg ruins in Teuto are a ruined castle in the Detmold district. The former hilltop castle was built from around 1190 and was abandoned in the first half of the 16th century. The Falkenburg, which is a protected archaeological monument, has been examined by an archaeological excavation team since April 2005.

The Falkenburg ruins are located in the southeastern part of the Teutoburg Forest (called Lippischer Wald) in the Teutoburg Forest / Eggegebirge nature park, around one kilometer south-southeast of Johannaberg, a southern part of the southern Detmold district of Berlebeck. It is located about 1.7 km as the crow flies north-northeast of the Gauseköte (see below) on a 372.6 m high neighboring crest of the 700 meters northeast of Stembergs (401.9 m), which over a 337 m high mountain saddle with a forest path branch to 339, 6 m high. About 5.5 km southeast of the ruin is the seam line to the south-facing Egge Mountains in the Silberbachtal.
