Friedrichsberg Hunting Lodge and Former Forest Tavern Zum Goldenen Reh

Highlight • Historical Site

The Waldschenke, a popular restaurant for hikers, has been closed since 2006. Economic reasons had made the difference. Around € 300,000 would have been necessary as an investment. The viewing platform offers a fantastic view.

View of the Casteller Schlossberg vineyards – Most Beautiful Wine View 2012

Highlight • Viewpoint

The 2014 vintage posed many challenges for the winemakers in the vineyard, which they mastered excellently thanks to a powerful harvest and good selection. As the German Wine Institute (DWI) emphasizes, wine lovers can look forward to harmoniously fresh drops of the new vintage, which, with their predominantly lighter style, have their finger on the pulse of the times.

Between Schlossberg and Herrenberg is a mighty, surrounded by a wooden bench "court linden". Under the tree in the Middle Ages, the cent (high or blood court) was held at Castell on the mountain in the open air. In 1662 it was merged with the Cent Rüdenhausen.

St. Johannis Church Castell

Highlight • Religious Site

The Johanneskirche in Castell is one of the older churches in the region. It was already used as the early Christian baptismal church and was first mentioned as a parish church in the 13th century. For a long time, the church was the main and residence church of the Counts of Castell. This also explains the large new building of the 18th century, for which Joseph Albert was the master builder.
