A castle that already has modern facilities

A short detour to the Greifenstein Castle ruins is definitely worthwhile. However, there's no long-distance view from up here.

Not much is known about Greifestein Castle, neither who inhabited it, nor who built it, nor when. What is known, however, is that it probably belonged to a robber baron, leading to its capture by a civilian army. The Diocese of Mainz finally had it rebuilt in 1397 and secured the nearby border with Hesse, as border disputes arose repeatedly. It wasn't until 1583 that a firm agreement was reached on the current borders, and the castle slowly fell into obscurity. On the castle hill, there are still a cellar vault and the keep.

Unfortunately, nothing of the castle complex remains, but the moat is still clearly visible.

The foundation walls are still standing... Nice place for a snack with a view of Hessian Switzerland.

A worthwhile hiking destination, there is nothing left of the castle, but you can easily imagine how it stood here. A good resting place, the overhanging trees, the view and the ditch or cut into the shell limestone are interesting.

Very good and friendly gastronomy and a great view

If you're lucky like us, the owner will give you a guided tour without registering. The only bad thing is the damage caused by the failure of the authorities.
