Ruins of Outer Castle Wolhusen

Highlight • Castle

High above Wolhusen, in a prime location, are still wall remains of the outer castle of Wolhusen. Their story began in the 11th century with the barons of Wolhusen. From the outer and inner castle they dominated the Entlebuch and the Rottal. At the beginning of the 14th century, the entire territory of Franconian sovereignty passed to Austria and thus to Habsburgs. The decay of the castles around 1400 put an abrupt end to this rule.

Beautiful agricultural area. Be sure to bring water for your dogs, as there were no watering holes and you rarely, if ever, walk in the shade.
