The Löwenburg ruins in Monreal were built around 1229 as a hilltop castle on a rocky outcrop by Count Hermann III of Virneburg on land owned by his brother Philipp, who then transferred his rights to it to his brother Hermann. The Philippsburg ruins were built shortly afterwards by Count Philipp.

The Virneburg castle ruins are located on a hill at a height of 430 meters in the middle of the village of Virneburg, which is surrounded by 4 mountains, including the Schafberg, over which the hike leads through the juniper heath.

For Virneburg see e.g. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virneburg_(Burg) or https://www.kuladig.de/Object View/O-53153-20120817-2

Nice view of Virneburg, steep trails

The Philippsburg The Philippsburg in Monreal was also built in the 13th century. The Philippsburg was given the nickname "Rech" (deer) in the local dialect due to its smaller size compared to the Löwenburg. There are two different theories about its origins: On the one hand, the Philippsburg was built as an outbuilding or outer structure of the Löwenburg, or on the other hand, it was built as Philip's "response" to the unauthorized construction of the Löwenburg by his brother. Some substantial wall remains of the Philippsburg have also been preserved - including the northwest tower and the restored south wall - which give a good impression of the original structure.
