On the newly beautifully designed information boards, you can learn a lot about the history of the castle and especially about the flora and fauna of the Frauenberg nature reserve. During our visit to the ruin, we were very lucky to meet the conservation officer responsible for the area, who told us even more about the history of the castle, but especially about the large owls and eagle owls living here. It wasn't just my granddaughter who was amazed by the wingspan, demonstrated by the man's outstretched arms. These animals must be protected at all costs. They only start hunting at night when no one is left in the ruin. Therefore, please strictly observe the night's rest!

It's simply magnificent to watch the sunset from the castle ruins in good weather! With a cloudless sky, you can see the intensely colored sunset in one direction, while the moon is already visible in the sky opposite. From the castle ruins, you have a wonderful view in all directions.
