Frauenstein Castle Ruins The village of Weiding belonged to the Frauenstein lordship in hereditary servitude, about whose beginnings nothing is known. In the second half of the 13th century, Duke Heinrich of Lower Bavaria bought Frauenstein from Fredrich the Siegenhofer. This source states that the area around the village of Weiding, which had a brick church, was largely deserted. In the 14th century, the Frauenstein lordship and thus Weiding became a fief of the King of Bohemia. The Satzenhofers, Zengers, Fuchs and the Lords of Murach followed as further owners. In 1512, Hans von Selbitz (knight, friend of Götz von Berlichingen) appears as the owner of Frauenstein Castle. On January 29, 1580, Emperor Rudolf II enfeoffed Andreas Georg von Murach auf Kürnberg und Winklarn and his wife Anna, daughter of the late Hans Fuchs zum Schneeberg, with the two desolate castles Frauenstein and Reichenstein, today preserved as the Reichenstein castle ruins, the small town of Schönsee and the villages of Weiding and others. On November 26, 1605, Hans Friedrich Fuchs received an imperial letter of fief. His hereditary possessions included the castles Frauenstein and Reichenstein, the town of Schönsee, Weiding, Pondorf, Gaisthal, Schönau, Stadlern and Schwand with the iron hammer. Today, unfortunately, only a few remains of the walls in a romantic location remain. Only the tip of an entrance arch protrudes from the overgrown piles of rubble. A little higher up, further east, a wall remains that is about to collapse rises from the collapsed material. Large piles of bricks lie everywhere. The whole thing impressively shows the decay of a castle and looks a bit like a sunken fairytale castle. Source: www.wikipedia.de

Frauenstein, one of the five mysterious vanishing points of the early Middle Ages - next to Hirštejn (Czech Republic, between Závist (Neid) and Nemanice (Wassersuppen)), Reichenstein (between Stadlern and Ebene or Böhmerwaldturm, Drachenturm (Treffelstein) and Thanstein. You have to experience them all with all their secrets in order to get to the bottom of the secrets of the “Schwarzachtaler holiday region 🤣).

Beautiful hiking trail, past rocks and the sound of the water in the background.
