The Diebskeller is a beautiful example of how nature and history come together in the Haßbergland region – a place to marvel at and explore.

The ruins have a very special character due to their construction – you can still really feel the connection between nature and medieval architecture.

A journey into history with lots of information on the panels.

The ruins of Bramberg Castle are located within the Haßberge Nature Park on the summit of the 494.3-meter-high Bramberg, an extinct volcanic cone of the Heldburg Gangschar, approximately 2 kilometers northwest of the village of Bramberg, a western district of Ebern, and about 5 kilometers (as the crow flies) northeast of the city of Königsberg in Bavaria. It is surrounded by the Goßmannsdorf Forest. Source and further information: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burg_Bramberg_(Ha%C3%9Fberge)

On the path leading up to Heldburg Fortress in Thuringia, you'll eventually come across a linden tree split in two. A sign is attached to the hollow of this tree, and I'd like to tell you about it now: "Castle Linden of Heldburg Fortress – Large-leaved Summer Linden. Wanderer, pause! Read my story here: In 1791, I was planted by the then Ducal Court Secretary, Johann Daniel Bechmann (1768-1826), from Heldburg. That's why I was also called the Bechmann Linden. Around 1960, lightning destroyed my beautiful crown and split the trunk. Duke George II of Saxe-Meiningen (1826-1914) and his wife, Baroness von Heldburg (1839-1923), often lingered in the shade of its spreading branches when they resided here at the fortress during the summer months."

The southern castle is still inhabited and privately owned. Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burg_Lichtenstein_(Unterfranken)

Directly in front of the Rotenhan ruins there are two nice rest areas.

Thieves and robbers are said to have once stayed in these rock cellars. The Bamberg Book of Records records that a gang of thieves hid three stolen horses here in the 15th century. ... in old writings we read: "Large rocks conceal caves that inspire horror with their musty smell and darkness."
