Hiking

A small castle once stood here on the Schlossberg near Zähringen. She was not mentioned further in a document. However, from the year 1361 a "Rumelin von Zeringen" is known as a citizen in Altheim. Remnants of a ditch and wall are still clearly visible off the path. There was probably a residential tower in the north-west corner of the Burgplatz. The complex has an area of 30 m x 40 m, the residential tower about 11 m x 7 m.
