This castle is a ruin, but the tower is still very well preserved and accessible. The ascent is free and you really have a great view in every direction.

Beautifully situated castle ruins, the tower is renovated and can be climbed, from there offers a great view. Inside the tower, there are some panels about the renovation of the ruin.
