  • Great views from the top. Also check out the path to the left before heading for the main entrance. Sascha G.
  • The castle is in deed very authentic! You can definitely feel the medieval vibe in it and also how all the defense structures work! The view is also amazing as it oversee a huge plain across France and Germany. Martin L.
  • This castle is so well kept and full of hidden gems. It is also filled with large trees providing shady rest spots. Well worth the hike and €12! Stephanie H.
