The castle, towering 150 meters above the Weisach Valley, is a widely visible symbol of power and history. First documented in 1126, it served as the ancestral seat of the Lords of Stein for centuries. In 1895, it passed to the Barons of Rotenhan and finally to the Haßberge district in 1972. Noteworthy are the mighty double-towered gate and the picturesque remains of the late Gothic chapel. Source and further information: https://www.maroldsweisach.de/burgruine-altenstein

On the path leading up to Heldburg Fortress in Thuringia, you'll eventually come across a linden tree split in two. A sign is attached to the hollow of this tree, and I'd like to tell you about it now: "Castle Linden of Heldburg Fortress – Large-leaved Summer Linden. Wanderer, pause! Read my story here: In 1791, I was planted by the then Ducal Court Secretary, Johann Daniel Bechmann (1768-1826), from Heldburg. That's why I was also called the Bechmann Linden. Around 1960, lightning destroyed my beautiful crown and split the trunk. Duke George II of Saxe-Meiningen (1826-1914) and his wife, Baroness von Heldburg (1839-1923), often lingered in the shade of its spreading branches when they resided here at the fortress during the summer months."

The moated castle is almost hidden away, accessible via a small road that branches off from Sulzdorf at Lederhecke. https://inges-reiseblog.de/wasserschloss-brennhausen/

The castle, which stands 150 metres above the Weisach valley, is a symbol of past power that can be seen from afar. It was first mentioned in a document in 1126. For centuries, the castle was the ancestral seat of the Lords of Stein, in 1895 it passed to the Barons of Rotenhan and finally in 1972 to the Haßberge district. The mighty double-tower gate and the picturesque remains of the late Gothic chapel are noteworthy. From the complex, you have a wonderful panoramic view of the Haßberge mountains.
