Baudenkmal

Construction of the castle began in 1122 when it served as a strategic fortification point in the local territory. Over the centuries the structure evolved through multiple building phases before eventually declining into ruins.

The structure displays medieval building techniques through its preserved stonework that visitors can still observe today. These remains offer insight into the craftsmanship and construction methods that were common in the region during medieval times.

The site is accessible via Schloßberg street in Waischenfeld with marked paths leading to observation points throughout the ruins. Visitors should wear sturdy footwear as the terrain is uneven and some areas feature steep slopes.
