Seldom seen such a cool castle. It's privately owned and you can actually walk around alone inside. It's really worth a trip.

"4 out of 5 mountain bikers recommend this" - what did they smoke? Here on the Stubenberg, the fox and the hare say good night, and Schloss Taxis is located between Dischingen and Trugenhofen.
