The city gate is beautiful, but it is only the entrance to a cute little town center. It invites you to take a break.

Beautiful castle ruins with charm. Unfortunately, not everything is accessible because it is closed. Probably not safely accessible. Nevertheless, a great place of power and a nice destination.
