The Wensburg was probably built in the 13th century. The Wensburg was first mentioned in documents in 1401 as Haus zu Wentzbergh. The castle complex measures around 20 x 40m and is divided into two areas. The rectangular core castle area with the residential tower is clearly visible. The residential tower is around 20m high, has a base area of 9.5 x 10.7m and walls are 2.5m thick. The residential tower and most of the remaining parts of the ruins date back to the conservation efforts of Louise Scheib at the beginning of the 20th century. The owner at the time tried to preserve what had been destroyed in 1633 during the Thirty Years' War and what was demolished in 1832. In 1833, the castle chapel dedicated to Saint George was also demolished. Until 1930, the main castle was surrounded by a 7m high wall made of basalt blocks and rubble stones, which is still 3m high today. At that time, there was a battlement on the rampart. The Wensburg castle ruins are open to the public. Source: https://www.ich-geh-wandern.de/wensburg

Creepy Wensburg 😉

A beautiful ruin with an interesting past, which unfortunately has been demolished for building material.

The Nürburg is the highest castle in Rhineland-Palatinate (676.5 m above sea level). It was built on a basalt, weathered volcanic vent. The basalt rock gave the mountain and the castle their name: Mons Nore, the black mountain. He also supplied the building materials for the castle. When the weather is clear, the keep (39 m high) offers a fantastic panoramic view of the entire Eifel, but also of the heart of the “Green Hell”, the Nordschleife, which winds its way through the woods around the castle.

Already too grown unfortunately we couldn't get any closer

A nice, interesting place with hidden wall remnants in the surrounding forest.

Obliers Castle, freely accessible A spur castle (castle that is bordered on three sides by steeply sloping terrain and therefore only had to be defended on one side of the mountain), First mentioned in 1300, built for strategic support against the Counts of Jülich, idyllically situated in the Lierstal
