The ruins now have great information boards on which you can find the history of the castle and its builders as well as all kinds of information on the subject of castles. Highly recommended and brand new! Great photorealistic representations of the castle in its original state!

Seldom seen such a cool castle. It's privately owned and you can actually walk around alone inside. It's really worth a trip.

Thurn and Taxis: The Castle It is originally a tower-fortified castle from the Middle Ages: "Schloss Trugenhofen" is built on Griesfelsen. The princes of Thurn and Taxis choose the "Hohe Schloss" (521 m above sea level) as their summer residence and call it "Schloss" from 1819 Taxis". The princes come here to the Härtsfeld by Danube boat and stagecoach, mainly from May to September. When the flag flies, the prince is there! A tradition at Thurn und Taxis to this day: a flag on the castle tower (1857) shows that the prince is present. From all four points of the compass, avenues lead directly to the destination - in the past there were poplars, today chestnuts. Ever since the princely house bought the castle and "Markttischingen" (Dischingen) for 150,000 guilders in 1734, there has been a lot of expansion: up to 400 people stayed here in the 18th and 19th centuries; in summer the permanent staff included: castle administrator, building inspector, Gardener, court clerk, head stable master... The latter is responsible for 90 horses.A small kingdom in itself - with extensive grounds, its own castle chapel and the English Forest.Many architectural styles - from Renaissance to Baroque, Rococo and Classicism to Neo-Gothic - can be recognized.

When the flag flies on the castle tower, the prince is present. Several architectural styles come together in and around the castle. The princes of Thurn and Taxis actually come from Italy and were electors - which means they were allowed to "choose" the king and take part in the election of the king. Two towers and a badger are depicted in the coat of arms. The towers stand for "Thurn", which means tower, the badger in the middle for "Taxis". The two lions in the coat of arms come from Valsassina and were previously eagles as a sign of grace. The badger in the heart shield is the actual family coat of arms. The towers were added later when attempts were made to gain favor more quickly and investigations were carried out to prove descent from the Milanese della Torre, which was finally confirmed by Emperor Ferdinand III in 1650. and King Philip IV of Spain was confirmed.
