A beautiful photo motif with a great view of the Lahn, but above all a bridge full of history. The stone round arches date back to the 16th century. During the Thirty Years' War, part of the bridge was blown up and replaced by the metal construction in the 19th century. As far as I know, this combination is unique and makes the bridge a cultural monument.

Medieval atmosphere when staying overnight in the youth hostel. The thick walls of the rooms and the great view of the castle opposite were a new experience. Food was good. Packed lunch available for an additional charge.

Very impressive ruin, which is also completely freely accessible. The castle is a bit off the road, but with sturdy shoes it is easy to reach via various paths. Highly Recommended!

Very nice ruin with good information on a board in front of the entrance. Inside the castle there are 3 benches where you can have a picnic. The ideal place to stop for a break on the "Augst" Waller Tour.

Laid out on small terraces below the Schaumburg, you have the opportunity to take a break and enjoy the sun when the weather is nice. When the facility is finally renovated and restored, you can really create something beautiful here.

The name "Schowenburg" or "Schauenburg" first appeared for the castle in 1197, as the center of a dominion of the same name. In addition to the former castle, this included the towns of Biebrich, Cramberg and Steinsberg.[1] In the 12th century the castle complex was owned by the Counts of Leiningen. When the counts died out in the male line around 1220, the castle fiefdom was divided and changed hands several times. Part of the castle was owned by Elise, daughter of Count Emicho III. von Leiningen and wife of Ruprecht the Quarrelsome of Nassau. With her death, this share passed to the County of Virneburg via her daughter. Another part of the castle fell to the County of Diez and from there to the County of Weilnau. A third part of the Schaumburg fell to the House of Isenburg. When his inheritance was divided in 1232, the Schaumburg share came into the possession of Gerlach I of Limburg. In 1266, however, the House of Limburg had to relinquish part of the castle in an arbitral award in favor of Electorate of Cologne. The Archbishop of Cologne, Siegfried von Westerburg, transferred the Electoral Cologne share to the House of Westerburg in 1276. The House of Westerburg expanded the Schaumburg from 1279. In order to weaken the position of the castle, Balduin of Luxembourg built Balduinstein Castle near the Schaumburg. A lengthy dispute ensued, as a result of which the town of Balduinstein was separated from the dominion of Schaumburg in 1321 and raised to the status of a town.

One of the most beautiful parts of the Lahn is certainly in Balduinstein. The village with the castle ruins nestles in the very narrow valley. Schaumburg Castle towers over everything.

So well hidden in the forest, the ruins are not easy to find. But when you do stand in front of them, you will be amazed. They are pretty well preserved, even though they are very old. The original version was probably built in the 13th century, but was destroyed and rebuilt several times in between. A mystical place!

The tower castle is located on a roughly rectangular mountain spur above the Emsbach. The spur slopes steeply to the west, south and east. In the north of the castle there is a neck ditch. The outer defenses and the south facing Zwinger have almost completely disappeared. The main castle is 35 meters long and 18 meters wide. It does not have a keep. On the north side, the castle has a five-storey, slightly kinked, shield wall reinforced with touring and almost 20 meters high. The entrance to the main castle was in the western shield wall. On the south side of the densely built-up inner castle was the Palas, the outer walls of which have been preserved. The eastern part of the inner castle is completely gone.

The Lahn Bridge in Balduinstein was the first prestressed concrete bridge to be erected using a cantilever. In 1951 it replaced a bridge over the Lahn that was destroyed in World War II.
