Adelburg castle ruins In 1180, an Engelhard was mentioned as the owner of the "adelenburc" for the first time; in the context of the document, a close connection to the Babonen from Abensberg is conceivable. As noble knights, the Adelburgers are close to the Hohenstaufen emperors. In 1230, Engelhard appeared as a witness in an Italian document from the last Hohenstaufen emperor, Friedrich II. In 1246, opposing king Heinrich Raspe promised the Adelburg to the Sulzbürger if it were to fall back to the empire - the last news from the Adelburgers. Perhaps Engelhard died in the turmoil surrounding the Hohenstaufen heir Konradin in Italy. In 1268 the Adelburg came to the Wittelsbach family, who then repeatedly mortgaged it. In 1334 it was owned by the controversial Auer patrician family from Regensburg, who used it as a base in the war against the imperial city. At the end of the same century, the knight Stephan Gewolf repeatedly used it as a starting point for raids on the road from Neumarkt to Hemau. After the Bavarian Duke intervened, he had to promise to refrain from the attacks in 1394. Other owners were Hilpolt Mendorfer in 1399 and in the 15th century, the Muracher, the Kürner and the Parsberger. In 1505, the Adelburg finally passed to the Duchy of Palatinate-Neuburg through the decree of Emperor Maximilian in Cologne. Duke Friedrich sold the castle to knight Jörg Wisbeck from Velburg, after which it was no longer mentioned and probably no longer inhabited. The remains of the Adelburg were finally destroyed in 1755 when the blocks of its walls were removed to build the church in Batzhausen. Further decay to this day. You can only get a distant idea of the once impressive castle from the view from the southwest: on the outer wall of the chapel tower you can still see a few medium-sized, precisely carved cuboids. Today, essentially only a 3.5 m high section of the curtain wall remains on the north side of the complex. The mystery of the Adelburg arises from the question of where the access to the core castle was. There is no ramp or flat area: the rock on which the castle lies falls steeply on all sides and has to be climbed. That's why there is even speculation that access was through an underground passage.

Hohenburg Castle Ruins Hohenburg Castle is one of the oldest castles in the Nordgau, present-day Upper Palatinate. It protected an important medieval trade route that ran from the lower Elbe River via Forchheim to Regensburg. The historical drawing shows that it was probably a moat with wall towers that ran around the entire complex and was certainly built in the late Middle Ages. The builders dispensed with an additional moat, relying instead on the steep mountain slopes as a barrier. Nothing remains of the original castle dating back to the 11th century. The oldest part of the heavily dilapidated structure visible today is probably the square keep at the northwestern tip. It has a side length of 7.5 meters and a circular interior. The palace adjoins it to the east. These oldest parts of the building probably date from the 13th century. The palace-like extension took place in the 16th century, determining the present appearance of the remains. From the south wing, one can still see a thick, fortress-like wall with loopholes, which served to monitor the access road running directly below. Its founders were perhaps Count Ernst, first mentioned around 1050, and his wife Pilifrid. It wasn't until 1115 that Count Ernst was mentioned again in a document, this time explicitly as "von Hohenburg." In 1210, Hohenburg came into the possession of Margrave Diepold VI of Vohburg through marriage; the four sons from this marriage later called themselves Margraves of Hohenburg. However, this close proximity to power ultimately led to the downfall of the Hohenburg family: When the Hohenburg system collapsed after the death of Emperor Frederick II in 1250, the Hohenburg brothers fell victim to the power struggles and died childless in Sicilian dungeons. In 1258, therefore, control of Hohenburg passed to the Bishop of Regensburg. The castle was repeatedly expanded and rebuilt, but from 1600 onwards, the keepers took up residence in the valley, and the castle fell into disrepair. After the Bavarian state assumed control during the secularization, it was decided in 1812 to demolish all the buildings. Visits to the ruins are officially only permitted with permission from the commandant of the training ground. The community of Hohenburg has long fought to have the Hohenburg ruins permanently accessible – so far in vain. Source: Excerpts from www.burgenseite.de

There are really nice trails around the castle ruins 😁👍

Multiple highlight: https://www.komoot.de/highlight/263136 https://www.komoot.de/highlight/224111 You can find the right trail here: komoot.de/highlight/791404

It is possible to visit the castle ruins at any time, even if it is part of the "military security area", there is a fairly easy path leading up. The last part is very steep, but you can also push the 10m. https://www.schwarze-laber.de/freizeit-kultur/burgen-schloesser/burgruine-hohenfels/

Great view up here, worth the walk.
