오스텔스하임‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 동굴

In the 12th century, the castle of the same name was built on a spur above present-day Bad Liebenzell. The castle consisted of several buildings and a thick curtain wall with an integrated keep. The dry moat now serves as a parking lot. The keep and curtain wall have been preserved and can be visited during opening hours. Today, the castle serves as a conference center and restaurant. From the keep, there is a far-reaching view over the surrounding valleys, which were monitored from the castle.

The viewing platform features several seating areas and replicas of historic cannons, as well as excellent views toward Bad Liebenzell. Several information panels are also located here. The climb from Bad Liebenzell is somewhat strenuous, as it involves a steep climb up several steps.

With a beautiful view, it is a good place to rest

Always stop and enjoy the view

Well-restored castle that now functions as a youth leisure center for the Pforzheim Protestant Church. In addition to the self-catering kitchen, the leisure center offers 55 beds. Of these, 40 are in multi-bed rooms, ranging from double rooms to eight-bed rooms, as well as 15 beds in the dormitory.

The castle was restored in 2009-2011 and houses the Dätzinger Local History Museum. In the castle courtyard there is a mighty sequoia tree and several small round fountains

Beautiful castle. Unfortunately, the beautiful courtyard with the old fountain is private property. But in the lower corridor you can sit nicely on the walls. Sun on your face and just enjoy the view

In addition to the enchanting view of the surrounding area, the castle also offers a number of mysteries: missing maidens, mountains of bones and a giant. But it's best for you to find out for yourself. The castle tower is open to the public every day in good weather, but closed in winter due to the risk of slipping. The restaurant is currently closed (March 2022), but the operators want to reopen it soon. Maybe the maidens and the giant will help...
