Lautereck Castle consists of a stone ground floor and two timber-framed floors above. Two corner towers give it a castle-like character. After renovations in 2008, a beautiful wedding room was created in the castle's bay window room. Weddings can also be held there on weekends and holidays.

Here I looked at the Rümelins Mill, the old town is also worth seeing.

The urban area of Murrhardt is part of the natural areas of the Swabian-Franconian Forest Mountains[2] as well as the Schurwald and Welzheimer Forest.[3][4] The settlement center is in the central small town of Murrhardt in the broad valley axis of the Murrtal, to which the southern part of the Mainhardt Forest ("Vorderer Mainhardter Wald") adjoins to the north and the Murrhardt Forest, named after the small town, to the south, and the Kirnberger Forest in the eastern part. All four are sub-regions of the Swabian-Franconian Forest Mountains.
