Great vision

The Scharzfeld castle ruins are worth a visit. Many information boards provide information about the history of the facility. A restaurant invites you to linger. Many animals such as birds and squirrels can be observed on the circular path around the ruins.

Beautiful cliff with a great view, the detour here is worth it at any time of the year.

😎The legend of "Hans the Bold" and the abducted maiden who was eventually miraculously rescued is a captivating story from times gone by. This legend tells of a time when knights, castles and mysterious events captured people's imagination. The story begins with the brave knight Hans, who was known for his bravery and daring deeds. He resided in his mighty castle, which towered high above the valley and offered an imposing sight. But Hans was not only notorious for his bravery, but also for his stubbornness. One day he met an enchanting maiden of extraordinary beauty. Driven by his passion and determination to possess her, he abducted the young lady against her will to his mighty castle, which from then on became known as Hanskühnenburg. The imprisoned maiden felt unhappy and alone in the dark and threatening castle. She could not escape, as the castle walls and the guards made her escape impossible. In her desperation, she began to pray, hoping that someone would hear her prayers and free her from this predicament. Time passed, and the maiden continued to pray tirelessly. Then, one day, during a violent storm, a miracle happened. Lightning flashed across the sky, thunder rumbled, and the rain fell in torrents. In the midst of this chaos and the mighty forces of nature, something inexplicable happened: the castle and Knight Hans literally sank underground. Nature itself seemed to save the maiden. Overwhelmed with amazement and joy, the maiden realized that her prayers had finally been answered. She took the opportunity and escaped from her former captivity. The Hanskühnenburg, which once towered so imposingly and threateningly over the valley, had disappeared, and in its place only a square rock remained, which from then on served as a testimony to the miracle and the rescue of the Virgin.

The unicorn cave has been filled with clay soil since the last ice age, quite unique. The tour is entertaining and interesting. It is one of the oldest “visitor caves”.
