A fantastic fortress with lots to explore and a fantastic view of the surrounding area. There's a small souvenir shop at the entrance and exit, where you can also buy drinks. The site map is available in German, French, or English. There are also events taking place on the grounds, and apparently there's also an escape room adventure (which you can book). In the middle of the fortress ruins, there's a huge lawn with benches where you can have a picnic with a great view, provided you bring some snacks.
