Roman spring sanctuary Heidenfelsen

Highlight • Historical Site

The Heidenfelsen is a Roman spring sanctuary, which originated in the middle of the 3rd century. Two stones are still preserved. The left stone shows three seated source deities, who are given offerings. On the right stone is a sacrificial figure at the altar, two other figures are located next to it. The water of the spring has been attributed to healing powers in eye diseases.

Viewpoint "Am Herrengärtchen"

Highlight • Viewpoint

It used to be from here that the Highnesses observed their workers in the quarry -
today you can watch what is happening on the US air base.

The castle offers a great view of the city of Landstuhl. You can visit them or just stop for a short rest. In gastronomy, you can get everything from a thirst quencher to a hearty main meal. You can find information about the castle here: landstuhl.de/tourismus/burg-nanstein.html
