The pretty Thann Castle dates back to the 12th century and is slightly elevated above the Schwarzachtal. Today you will find a small museum here. The keep can be climbed within opening hours. A castle festival and various other events take place here in summer.
Burgthann is located about 15 km southeast of Nuremberg. Either take the Altdorf / Burgthann exit of the A3 motorway or drive on the federal road 8 via Postbauer-Heng towards Nuremberg. Before Schwarzenbruck, an arterial road leads to nearby Burgthann.
The castle ruins themselves lie above the picturesque Schwarzach Valley in the middle of the village. The path is signposted.
