Surrounded by a moat and fortified ramparts, this ancient structure sits atop a ridge, looking down over lands it once safeguarded. Its lower floors are rugged, made of weathered stone, while the upper levels, framed in delicate half-timber, tell of its evolution through time. Johann Albrecht von Eller-Eberstein brought this place to life in the years following the turmoil of the Thirty Years' War. And yet, some believe an even older fortress stood here before it, though no records remain to prove it, leaving its true origins cloaked in mystery. As we step inside, fragments of its past remain untouched: antiques lie scattered, a grand piano waits in silence, and details linger, hinting at lives long departed. It’s as if time itself has made a home here, preserving traces of a lost era. Today, we wander through its desolate rooms, piecing together a story from what remains, hoping to catch a glimpse of the lives this castle once held.
