오브펠덴‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪7‬개의 동굴

Beautiful castle ruins with an information panel about their history. Perfectly situated in the triangle formed by the streams. Unfortunately, there's no barbecue area.

From the north, a relatively easy, clearly visible, unmarked path leads to the plateau on which Schnabelburg Castle stands. The descent to the south is very steep and, when the ground is wet and/or covered in autumn leaves, also very slippery.

지난번에는 성곽을 놓쳤는데, 이번에는 나무 꼭대기 사이로 간신히 발견했습니다. 집에 와서 조사해 보니 더 자세히 살펴볼 만한 가치가 있을 것 같습니다.

Remains of the foundation walls of a former hilltop castle

The first structure dates back to the Bronze Age, while a later one was built in the Middle Ages. It was a manor house constructed of wood, resting on a stone base. No traces of a surrounding wall have been found. The originally much larger plateau shrank over time as parts of it repeatedly slipped away, thus eliminating any fortifications. Nevertheless, it can be assumed that a protective stone wall never existed; rather, only a palisade was built, which decayed over time.

A wonderful area on the ascent to Horben. In good weather, you can enjoy perfect views of the Alps.
