Mountain biking

Anyone entering the grounds of the Windeck Castle moves on historical ground. Unfortunately, not much is left of this historic site. Neither the extent nor the size of the former castle is known. Probably the Windeck was only a smaller country castle. In front of the castle, however, only the castle wall is visible. Unfortunately there are no more building remains and loose rocks. The castle stones were used according to oral tradition, for the construction of the church or Ampferbacher the building of the church wall.

Only a part of the ramparts of the castle itself is still visible. There are no more building remains or loose rocks. According to oral tradition, the stones were used to build the Ampferbach church or to build the church wall. Occasionally one also believes to know that the Windeck rock was occasionally used to build houses in Ampferbach. discovere-burgebrach.de/stations/die-burg-windeck
