Knight's stone no. 54: Sheep farm

Highlight • Monument

Below the ruin Gräfenstein is the parking lot and there is also the PWV-Ritterstein No. 52 "Schäferei". As the name implies, here was the place where the sheep farm was built for the castle. Of course there was also a hut for the castle shepherd here.

Luitpold Tower on Weißenberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

As the highest point for miles around, the tower offers a wonderful panoramic view over large parts of the Palatinate Forest. There is also an outdoor rest area and a large room with tables and a fireplace, where you can seek shelter even in bad weather.

Ritterstein 'Am Holländerklotz'

Highlight • Monument

In the 17th century, several fir trees that stood in this place were purchased by the Dutch. These were needed for shipbuilding. Many trunks were acquired by the Dutch from the Palatinate Forest, they turned out to be robust and ideal for shipbuilding. The knight's stone is cared for and maintained by the Palatinate Forest Association PWV, it is NOT a boundary stone.
