The village fountain is a beautiful detail that adds to the charm of Altenstein – a quiet place that makes history and village life tangible.

The church is a beautiful contrast to the impressive castle ruins and rocks in the surrounding area: peace, history and nature combined in a small village.

The master brewer is employed by the city of Seßlach and is responsible for the so-called "Kommunbräu" (communal brewery). His personal territory – the Kommunbrauhaus (Maximiliansplatz 105) at the lower end of Pfarrgasse – was built in 1892 and later renovated in 1960 and 1997/1988. It is one of the last breweries of its kind. Approximately 40 batches are brewed annually. Of these, around 40% go to the local inns Gasthof Reinwand and Landgasthof ROTER OCHSE Seßlach, and approximately 60% to private individuals.

In the past, teachers and pastors were often closely linked in their roles and prestige, as they were among the most important dignitaries in a place, exercising authority and shaping public life. These two professions were often combined in one person, as pastors frequently also worked as teachers, especially in rural communities. And so, here too, the former school is located right next to the church, no wonder.

Very good beer from the in-house brewery. Always worth a stop.

The castle, towering 150 meters above the Weisach Valley, is a widely visible symbol of power and history. First documented in 1126, it served as the ancestral seat of the Lords of Stein for centuries. In 1895, it passed to the Barons of Rotenhan and finally to the Haßberge district in 1972. Noteworthy are the mighty double-towered gate and the picturesque remains of the late Gothic chapel. Source and further information: https://www.maroldsweisach.de/burgruine-altenstein
