Impressive, large castle ruins on a rock above the Aar valley. Built as the residence of the Counts of Katzenelnbogen. It is freely accessible from April to September. Coming from the lower village, an incredibly steep road leads up here.

Evangelical Church in Neo-Gothic Style

Highlight • Religious Site

The little church is not old, but it looks gothic. Therefore, it looks beautiful next to the castle and counteracts the medieval image.

Bench with a view of the church and castle

Highlight • Viewpoint

You can park here for free.
You should pack food and drink on a trip, because there is nothing to buy anywhere.
