That's why I always drive downhill. I only drove up the mountain once and was completely exhausted afterwards.

Yes, here in Franconia we have more carp ponds than anything else. Great. But unfortunately, since the Aischgrund carp became a protected species, it costs more than pork loin with Spätzle or something similar. Outrageously expensive, unfortunately, and what's worse, the carp farmers don't even see the money.

The exterior is currently being renovated. It's not really worth stopping by at the moment.

The place was first mentioned in 1154/57 as "Brunnen" (Brunn) in a document in which the Heilsbronn Monastery exchanged goods in this and other places for goods in other places. In 1311, the monastery sold its goods to Wolfram von Urach. From 1400 to 1458, the castle was owned by the Lords of Seckendorff, then by the Lords of Lüchau. Brunn Castle was burned down in 1409 (and again in 1501). The core of what is now known as the Old Castle dates from 1525 (the castle was damaged in the Peasants' War) and 1553 (also damaged in the Second Margrave War).
