The White Lady of Hohenbourg Castle Not far from Hohenbourg Castle, just before the German-French border, is the Maidenbrunnen, which bears witness to a sad story: The lords of Hohenbourg and Wegelnburg were enemies for a long time. And as it was bound to happen, the squire Robert von Wegehiburg fell in love with Edwige, daughter of Lord von Hohebourg. She often lingered at the rich source between the two castles. One day Robert went hunting. He chased after a wild boar that rushed to the spring where Edwige was staying. In the heat of the moment, the wild boar jumped at Edwige, but Robert, a good hunter, was able to catch the wild boar just in time and won the heart of his beloved through this act. Often the two secretly spent time at this spring between the enemy castles. But one day the lord of Hohenbourg surprised his daughter in the arms of his archenemy's son. In blind rage he stabbed Robert in front of Edwige's eyes. She collapsed in grief and died on the spot, immediately following her lover to the realm of the dead. Since that awful day, two forget-me-not shrubs have been growing at this spring, now known as the Maiden's Well. It is not uncommon to see a white shadow over the Maidenbrunnen here at dusk: it is the ghost of Edwige, which descends from the cellars of the Hohenbourg and seeks the place of her love. There she sings sad words and sheds tears in the rivulet before vanishing again, carried by the wind. This legend comes from this link_: (https://www.wanderparadies-wasgau.de/hohenbourg.php)

Tanstein Castle stretches across the two westernmost castle rocks in the castle group. Both rocks used to be connected by a bridge. Today there are modern parapet walls on the rocks, which were placed arbitrarily during restoration work and do not convey any impression of the former castle buildings. The west rock was apparently built with tower-like buildings leaning against the rock. Evidence of this is given by beam holes and workings in the rock, as well as a large cistern, in which water was collected from the roofs. From this point you have a great view of the facility.

Beautiful castle ruins with magnificent views of the area. Attention, if you go down the north tower, you end up in a dead end. You then have to go back upstairs to get out ;-)

The castle was cleverly built in and around a high sandstone spur. Many remnants of the walls are still visible. The architectural style and carved dates suggest different historical periods. The view from the highest point is breathtaking. Two information panels explain the panorama. In this respect, this castle far surpasses the much more extensive, but also lower-lying, Fleckenstein Castle.

In the large castle complex you have several possibilities for a "gate view".

South of Busenberg, on the 367 m high castle hill, rises the once proud medieval Drachenfels Castle, which is already striking from afar because of its striking shape. Although it has become a ruin over the centuries as a result of military conflicts, it is still one of the historically most important sites in the Palatinate, according to many archaeologists and historians. First mentioned in connection with a knightly family of the same name in the 12th century, the castle was probably once the border castle of the Benedictine monastery in Klingenmünster. In 1335, because of the robber baronship of its owners, besieged and destroyed by Strasbourg citizens, the castle came to the knights of Dürkheim in the further course of its history, which was to be decisive for the Drachenfels for many years and rebuilt the Drachenfels. A mutual protective and defiant alliance of the Dürkheimers with a certain Franz von Sickingen, who was a valiant knight, led to the second destruction of the Drachenfels on May 10, 1523. Although the Drachenfels was never a Sickingen castle, it was destroyed by the allied troops of the Elector and Archbishop of Trier, the Elector Palatinate and the Landgrave of Hesse. The castellan and eight servants were no match for the superiority and surrendered the Drachenfels without a fight. Subsequently destroyed and razed, a ban on reconstruction was also imposed. The castle has remained a ruin to this day. In the course of the French Revolution, in its history the Palatinate was alternately German and French, the ruins came into the possession of the municipality, which is still the owner of the Drachenfels today. Visit the Drachenfels with its many characteristic rock chambers, with its towers and thickly reinforced shield walls. An overwhelming view of the magnificent landscape of the Dahner Felsenland, where mountain ridges crowned with red sandstone rocks repeatedly rise out of the green sea of forests, compensates you for the effort of the short ascent.

Reasonably well-preserved forecourt - this makes the approach interesting. The viewing platform is quite small and accessible by steep stairs. Since the view is phenomenal and there is also an all-round orientation board, you should make the journey (and possibly wait).

Lots of caverns and passages through the rock, formerly a large stately castle with a very good view of the Wasgau

An absolute highlight of the area. The short ascent via secured stairs is rewarded with an incredible view of the Palatinate Forest and the adjacent village.

Drachenfels Castle is definitely worth a climb. A great experience, and not just because of the beautiful view. Exploring the structure of this castle is a real adventure, as it differs significantly from the usual castles.

Surprisingly well-preserved castle, which marks the second part of the local castle series. Again, the view is very good. On the tower, there is a circular "shield" on which all the surrounding castles are located. Nice detour for every way.
