A medivial castle halfway between Ansbach and Rothenburg, 511 km above sea level. The castle was never conquered, nor apparently had it ever suffered serious damage. As a result of the good luck to have been acquired by Hans Unbehauen, the master mason that saw to its preservation in 1964, the castle is in remarkable condition. Inside there are historical displays reflecting the castles past and also an interesting display of East Asian objects of art collected by one of the former owners of the castle.
