View of Mörnsheim Castle Ruins

Highlight • Viewpoint

Nice view from the remains of the castle ruins. The well-preserved part is privately owned, from the accessible part of the former castle only the remains of the wall are left. Mörnsheim Castle was founded at the peak of castle building around 1225, towards the end of the Staufer period. In 1281, after extensive expansion, the castle was called castrum Mornsheim.

Viewpoint on the opposite side of the valley from the Twelve Apostles. The devil was able to keep a close eye on the apostles.

From a distance, the view of the Twelve Apostles is worth the hike.

Dohlenfelsen Hagenacker

Highlight • Natural Monument

It's the Dohlenfelsen in Hagenacker. Jackdaws are also at home here and have their nests in the rock holes, so climbing is also forbidden here.
