Description
Burgruine Hohenschramberg is a fascinating castle ruin dating back to 1457, built by Hans von Rechberg on the site of an earlier fortress known as Falcon Stone.
Mighty walls up to six meters thick attest to the historical significance of this structure, which suffered during the Thirty Years' War and was later destroyed by King Louis XIV in 1689.
Its hilltop location offers picturesque views of the Black Forest, and it hosts an annual music festival in August that attracts history and culture enthusiasts.
