Brandenstein Castle, also known as Brandenstein Castle, stands on a Zechstein reef in the Brandenstein district of the town of Ranis in the Saale-Orla district in Thuringia 🏰.

There has been a fortification on the castle hill since the 11th century. In 1084, Emperor Henry IV enfeoffed Wiprecht von Groitzsch, the later Margrave of Meissen and Lusatia, with the Castrum Ranis - the first documented mention. (Wikipedia)

We came across it quite by chance on our hike and only then did we realise who it actually belongs to. We also found the doors open during the week and were able to take a look inside. It's great that it is being preserved through private commitment.👌😎

In the end, it was very worth seeing and informative, and the museum staff were also super friendly.

In the middle of the picturesque Saale-Orla valley, originally built between 1708 and 1714, with 365 windows, 52 interior doors, 12 chimneys and 4 entrances - Oppurg Castle is also known as the Four Seasons Castle.

Arnshaugk Castle was a strategically important point in the Orla region and the centre of the medieval Arnshaugk dominion in Orlagau. In the middle of the 13th century, a line of free lords of Lobdeburg near Jena named themselves after the castle, Otto von Lobdeburg-Arnshaugk. (Wikipedia)

The first building of the chapel was constructed around the year 1087.
