The Spitzenburg can no longer be seen today. However, its history is well described. So this was the northern end of the Werder. 😃

Castle complex that is no longer recognizable at what was then the northern end of the Werder, which lay in the middle of two arms of the Weser. The top castle was used to monitor a ford across the Weser. A large information board explains the history of the castle in detail and a large barbecue and rest area invites you to linger.

Beautiful information sign about the history of the castle and the noble family "von Werder".
