Lemmi alias Schlumpf
May 18, 2026, View of Wenzelschloss Castle and Pegnitz Bridge

In the years 1356 - 1360, the then Emperor Charles IV had a stately castle built on the small island on the Pegnitz. It served as a resting place on the way from Nuremberg to the imperial residence in Prague. The coat of arms hall is a stone testament to his power: 112 colorfully painted coat of arms shields of Bohemian noble families are carved into the wall. They were skillfully carved and painted into the sandstone by stonemasons. The coat of arms friezes are among the highest achievements of medieval heraldry.

A small rest area with information boards. The former loading area is still clearly visible, but the rest of the infrastructure has likely fallen victim to time.
