When walking towards Kamp-Bornhofen, don't go through the gate in the fence, but continue a little further along the path to the left. You'll then reach this beautiful viewpoint. Coming from Kamp-Bornhofen, turn right immediately after the gate.

The value and significance of the Marksburg lie primarily in its complete preservation as a medieval fortification. For many visitors it is the epitome of a medieval castle. Its exposed location on a rocky cone 90 meters above the town of Braubach contributes to this. The imposing fortress with buildings mainly from the 13th to 15th centuries is staggered with a keep, several buildings, kennels and bastions. The typical interior rooms such as the castle kitchen, knights' hall, bower, chapel, armory, wine cellar, battlements and tower rooms are particularly worth seeing. They provide insights into medieval life.

Partly a very well-kept old town with well-preserved half-timbered houses. Philippsburg Castle is also very well preserved and has good restaurants.
