Matt & Kyle Adventures
Hohenrode Castle
,
The path up was very steep. And crosses
through some mountain bike downhill
trails. So be on the lookout if your dog is
roaming, like Newton!

Castle ruin "Hohenrode" - called
Brigittenschloß Built from granite stones in
the middle of the 11th century by the
barons von Röder as a fleeing and signal
castle.  There was a direct line of sight with
the Neu-Windeck castle in Lauf and with
the Rodeck castle in Kappelrodeck.  The
castle was abandoned around 1524 and fell
into disrepair; the ruins came into the
possession of a farm.  Purchased by the von
Röder family in 1881.  This had the remains
of the wall, which suffered from lightning
strikes in 1824 and 1899.
