https://www.hna.de/lokales/fritzlar-homberg/schloss-dillich-wird-buddhistischer-tempel-9506018.html Probably built in 1361 on the site of an old moated castle from 1335, of which parts of the cellar rooms still remain. In 2017, Buddhist monks from Thailand bought the property

The keep is freely accessible, an iron spiral staircase leads to the very top. The view over the nearby and not so nearby surroundings is phenomenal!

A beautiful ruin of a Romanesque castle on high

Towards the end of the 12th or beginning of the 13th century, the construction of the fortifications on the 280 m above sea level began. NHN high Schloßberg started over Jesberg. On April 2, 1241, the brothers Ludwig and Wortwin von Linsingen sold the castle and courthouse "Lenswideshusen", later known as "Jagsperg" or "Jagesburg", to Archbishop Siegfried III of Mainz, but received them back as a Mainz fief. The castle was located on the old Fritzlarer Straße, one of the oldest trade routes in Hesse, which connected the Wetterau with the Fritzlar/Gudensberg area, and became - along with Fritzlar, Naumburg and Heiligenberg near Felsberg - a main base of the power of Mainz in Lower Hesse. The castle was repeatedly mortgaged over the next two centuries; Pledge holders and Burgmannen were u. a. Members of the ministerial families "von Falkenberg", "von Linsingen", "von Gilsa" and "von Grifte". Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burg_Jesberg

The manor house was built in 1782 by Freiherr Wilhelm Treusch von Buttlar and is now used as a private residence. The neoclassical building got a columned portal around 1915 and has been allowed to call itself a “castle” ever since. An old noble coat of arms can be seen in the flat triangular gable. The lily in it is a symbol of responsibility and beauty.

Tall people have to watch their heads when going up and down...

The reconstructed tower of Löwenstein Castle can be climbed and offers panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. Be careful of your head while climbing! Otherwise, you might easily fall 🤕.
