The history of the Araburg
The path from the parking lot to the castle ruins Araburg leads steeply uphill through the wooded hill on the Araberg, on whose peak in 800 m the Araburg towers. The path leads from the north to the ruin, and leads over the west almost once around the entire castle, before standing in the east on the square in front of the simple gate. That certainly had the reason, that one goes left of the castle. Thus, the attackers with their uncovered right half of the body, the so-called sword side, to the defenders of the castle.

Hubertus Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

This chapel recalls the story of Hubertus, the patron saint of the hunters. He is said to have gone hunting on Good Friday. When he came across a deer, he put on his crossbow. But then the huge animal looked at him with a glowing cross over his head. So Hubertus was converted.
