Well-preserved castle surrounded by nature and a great starting point for a short hike through the forest.

Unfortunately, there's a construction fence around the ruins, making it officially impossible to visit. The fence has probably been up for a few years. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like anything will change in the foreseeable future.

This "Lausker Schanze" is notable for the fact that on the top of the rampart there is a romantic ruin built in Gothic style in 1807. This served as an observation tower until the middle of the 20th century, but has since become a "real" ruin.
