Everything has been completely cut down 😣

The Kocherburg A thousand years ago, the spur castle secured the power of the Counts of Dillingen. After extensive archaeological security measures, the ruins can now be explored by anyone. An award-worthy civic project! Why did you need a castle in the Middle Ages? Castles protected the defenseless, castles secured influence for powerful men. This was also the case with the Kocherburg, which was first mentioned in 1300 as "castrum Kochenburch". However, it is probably much older. Its name goes back to the Lords of Kochen, who defended the interests of the Ellwangen monastery in the region as servants as early as 1147. In the middle of the 14th century, the military character of the castle was lost. The Kocherburg served the Ellwangen bailiffs primarily as the seat of the administrative district of the same name, "Amt Kochenburg". But not all of these bailiffs were popular with the people of Unterkochen. The legend of the hunting-obsessed Junker Hans testifies to this. Source: https://www.aalen.de/die-kocherburg.185009.25.htm

The church is worth a visit. It's really impressive

Super nice old town. You should plan a break here.

From the Kocher-Jagst cycle path you should definitely take the short detour to Kapfenburg. The inner courtyard is freely accessible and the castle is simply worth seeing. Since 1999, the international music school academy at Schloss Kapfenberg has had its headquarters here. We were lucky enough to be accompanied by classical music as we toured the farm. A complete tour of the castle is only possible as part of a guided tour.

A highlight in the Kochertal. You get an even better view from the path above, which leads through the forest

Nothing remains of the castle except for the surrounding moat. For several centuries, Agnesburg belonged to a chain of other castles, such as Hohenstaufen, Lauterburg, Rosenstein, Kapfenburg, Schenkenstein and Flochberg. The owners of this castle were probably the lords of Westhusen. The last descendant was the daughter Agnes. She had no offspring. Their estate of 1800 acres then went to the parish and church.
