Guided Story

Feel that gentle breeze up here on Turmberg? It's like a whisper from the past, when the mighty Hohenberg Castle stood where you are now. Look to your left – the ruins tell tales of knights and nobility. On a clear day, you might even catch a glimpse of the distant Vosges Mountains. Behind you, the vineyards spread out, glowing in golden and red hues in the fall. Close your eyes and maybe you'll imagine the clatter of armor and the laughter of ancient feasts. Straight ahead, you can see the Karlsruhe Palace, still standing proudly over Durlach. The best time to be here is at sunset, when the landscape transforms into a magical scene.
