Nice place with history, which is informed about with signs. There is also a war memorial created from one of the preserved parts of the castle, which commemorates those who died in the world wars. Otherwise, the remaining parts of the former castle can be visited quickly, but this place invites you to linger for a moment with the wonderful view. Children can play well there, but because of the height you should keep an eye on them so that they don't go too close to the edges. We were there in early spring (beginning of March) and for those interested in botany there are mainly violets, coltsfoot and lungwort (although some of them can already be found on the way to the entrance gate). The only thing that is difficult when driving to the bottom of the last climb is parking. So if you can (no problems with shortness of breath, for example), park further down and accept the sometimes quite steep climb and use the finish to take a break. Nevertheless, given the mix of nature and the piece of history, full star rating. ?

Nice, quiet view. Unfortunately there is no parking space available. We positioned ourselves on the side of the path. On the whole; Well maintained facility. Unfortunately there were probably a few partygoers there and I left a bit of rubbish behind the memorial tower.

I liked it there. A beautiful path leads to the ruins and the view is wonderful. But as the name ruin says, there is no more there, you shouldn't expect that. But I love places like this and if you feel the same way, this is the right place
