The older of the two castles, the Löwenburg, was first documented in 1229. It was built by Count Hermann III of Virneburg. According to legend, the castle was built on his brother Philipp's territory, which initially led to disputes within the family. Later, the conflicts were settled. Large parts of the complex are still preserved today, including the striking keep with its massive walls.
