Château du Loewenstein

Highlight • Historical Site

Löwenstein Castle (also called Lindenschmitt and Löwenburg) was first mentioned in the 13th century. The castle was destroyed in 1386 due to robber barons and was probably not rebuilt.

A very beautiful ruin with a wonderful view from both platforms.
