Schinderhannes Trough

Highlight • Monument

Yes, yes, in the Hunsrück, the Schinderhannes greets you everywhere ;-)
According to tradition, the drinking trough of the "Sins" (now Schulstrasse) has been located here since the 18th century.

Schmidtburg Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

Camping within the foundations of a castle ruin? It's possible! And here at Schmidtburg. You can set up camp for the night at the official trekking site and feel like a knight.
