Castle, but from around the 1700s. You can hike to this from town, or you can park your car in a very parking lot adjacent to the castle. There is also a restaurant where you can get plates and beers as well once you are inside. Great little place to visit, doesn't take very long to see everything. Recommend checking the spice out if you are in the area. in Alsbach. You can hike up to the or park your car at the parking space right outside the castle. Access is free. There is a restaurant for food and drinks. However, you can bring your food and even have a picnic there. Nice views of the valley from the top. What a sweet little castle! The ruin is actually in great shape, almost as though it has been restored (it was an impromptu visit for us and we didn’t have time to do much research. You literally can pull up to the parking lot at the (or park next to the very nearby playground and walk a few extra steps), and walk in through the entrance. You can either go towards the restaurant or make a left or right and walk through the outer grounds of the through gardens and a rabbit keep (which was the highlight of my kids day). The gardens are quaint and charming and actually maintained, if they’re a bit overgrown. In the center of the there is a tower you can climb with a coin “donation” box. The staircase up was VERY dark at one point (we had to use our phone flashlights just to see the steps at all; there were lights but they weren’t all working). There was also a restaurant that was closed when we were there but the seating was welcoming and within the walls of the castle, which I always love. It took us less than an hour to explore everything at a slow pace, easily done with my 3 kids ages 5,3,1.5 years. Definitely check out the playground right down the road if you have kids! A historical palace in ruins but still in good shape to have first hand experience! This 13th century masterpiece is now well maintained and open for the public visits and for the private events. By being on a hill, about 300m, and on the top of watch tower, one can have a nice view of the surroundings. There’s a wine and beer garden inside the site. Driving up the hill needs caution. Though less car parking places are at the site, it’s still enough if it’s not a busy day / time. Easily approachable by road. Nice weekend hike for families. With food and drinks waiting at the top. The playground is really nice and the view is great. A castle, not so many to see. it took me less than 20 minutes to walk everywhere. You can take less if you are not taking pictures. Parking is convenient because there are not so many people. I tried traditional archery here and it was amazing. The view from the castle, especially during sunset was incredible!! The is very well maintained too. A cute little that is being well cared for. There are gardens, chickens, rabbits, and peacocks. It is easy to get to with lots of parking. Great you can drive up to. Includes a beautiful rose garden, a feeding station for rabbits or chickens, and a restaurant.
