샤우엔슈타인‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪12‬개의 동굴

Today, at the foot of the castle hill, on the banks of the Saale River, some foundation remnants and a vault driven into the riverbank remain. The A72 motorway runs along the top of the castle hill. The castle remains consist of a few stone walls behind a still clearly visible moat. The site is privately owned and enclosed by a closed gate. The owner operates a restaurant there and has integrated the remaining castle walls into a fantasy-style garden. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burgstall_Saalenstein

Located directly at Reitzenstein Castle, this memorial commemorates the victims of the First World War.

The Reitzenstein family descended from the ancient Franconian nobility. They first appeared in documents in 1318 under the name "Konrad von der Grün," to whom the family line also traces its origins. As early as 1325, Chunrad von der Grün called himself "Reichzenstein" after the Reitzenstein Fortress, which he owned and was built around 1130. The ancestral seat of the Barons of Reitzenstein passed into other hands over time. The St. Wolfgang Castle Chapel was later abandoned. Parts of the altar found a new home in the Issigau Church. Reitzenstein served as a court seat until the mid-19th century. In 1889, the Barons of Reitzenstein repurchased their ancestral seat.

The hilltop castle of Uprode was built around 1320 by the Knights of Sparneck to secure their ancestral lands. The Swabian League destroyed it on July 11, 1523. With the destruction of their castles, the people of Sparneck also lost influence in their ancestral territory. The castle has been a ruin ever since. Remains of walls, foundations, and moats are visible in the forest. Scattered pieces of the demolished tower are also still clearly visible. There has been no safeguarding of its existence to date, so the ruins continue to deteriorate.

Very nice

From the castle you have a beautiful view of the town. The surrounding area can also be seen through the trees

Beautiful place with lots of old but unfortunately somewhat neglected corners.

Former moated castle with an interesting history, rebuilt as a moated castle after being destroyed. Private property, cannot be visited, can only be seen from the street.
