View of the Fürstenberg Castle ruins

Highlight • Castle

On the left bank of the Rhine, above the village of Rheindiebach, the Fürstenberg castle ruins rise. The ruin can be explored and is located on the famous Rhein-Burgen-Weg. A detour is worthwhile.

Sauerthal

Highlight • Castle

This small town with a very special charm is hidden deep in the valley at the end of a cul-de-sac. The beautiful Sauerburg castle towers above the village, while below the small stream flows peacefully towards the Wisper.
